Feasibility of Transrib Focused Ultrasound Thermal Ablation for Liver Tumors Using a Spherically Curved 2d Array - a Numerical Study

open access: yes, 2008
The use of focused ultrasound thermal ablation to treat hepatocarcinorna and other liver tumors produces promising clinical results. However, one of the major drawbacks is the high absorption of ultrasonic energy by the rib, making partial rib removal ...

Understanding the Stochastic Nature of Process Parameter Development of Blown Powder Laser Beam Directed Energy Deposition Additive Manufacturing of Pure Molybdenum

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Identified through the use of statistical design of experiments and metallographic investigation, this study exposes the stochastic origins of intergranular cracks in blown powder laser beam directed energy deposition additive manufacturing of pure molybdenum. It further demonstrates a successful crack mitigation approach with direct correlation to the

Functional anatomy of the subthalamic nucleus and the pathophysiology of cardinal features of Parkinson's disease unraveled by focused ultrasound ablation

open access: yes
The subthalamic nucleus (STN) modulates basal ganglia output and plays a fundamental role in the pathophysiology of Parkinson's disease (PD). Blockade/ablation of the STN improves motor signs in PD.

Slip Localization Intensification Mediated by Grain Boundary Sliding in a Polycrystalline Nickel‐Based Superalloy

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The temperature dependence of fatigue behavior in nickel‐based superalloys is investigated through high‐resolution measurements of plastic localization. While increasing temperature reduces localization and enhances fatigue performance in René 88DT, Inconel 718 exhibits a sharp degradation at intermediate temperature due to intensified slip ...

Reducing Lesion Aberration by Dual-Frequency Focused Ultrasound Ablations

open access: yes, 2012
Discrepancies between hyperecho-predicted necrosed volume in ultrasound ( US) images and the actual size of a thermal lesion might cause incomplete ablation or damage normal structures during high intensity focused US ( HIFU) ablations .

Molecular Dynamics Studies of Shape Memory Polymers: From Bead–Spring Models to Atomistic Simulations

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Coarse‐grained (left) and atomistic (right) models of the shape memory polymer ESTANE ETE 75DT3 are shown schematically. The two representations bridge molecular detail and mesoscopic description. Both models capture shape memory behavior, linking segmental mobility and conformational relaxation of anisotropic chains to macroscopic recovery, and ...

Focused Ultrasound-Mediated Hyperthermia in Vitro: An Experimental Arrangement for Treating Cells under Tissue-Mimicking Conditions.

open access: yes, 2019
An experimental arrangement that allows in vitro exposure of cells to focused ultrasound-mediated hyperthermia (43°C-55°C) in a tissue-mimicking phantom with biological, acoustic and thermal properties comparable to those of human soft tissue is ...
