Risk-Assessment of Esophageal Surgery: Diagnosis and Treatment of Celiac Trunk Stenosis
The Thoracic & Cardiovascular Surgeon Reports, 2018 Anastomotic leakage of the gastric conduit following surgical treatment of esophageal cancer is a life-threatening complication. An important risk factor associated with anastomotic leakage is calcification of the supplying arteries of the gastric ...

Sensing a Sensor: Identifying the Mechanosensory Function of Primary Cilia
Biosensors, 2014 Over the past decade, primary cilia have emerged as the premier means by which cells sense and transduce mechanical stimuli. Primary cilia are sensory organelles that have been shown to be vitally involved in the mechanosensation of urine in the renal ...

Perfusion and apparent oxygenation in the human placenta (PERFOX) [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Purpose: To study placental function - both perfusion and an oxygenation surrogate (T2*)-simultaneously and quantitatively in-vivo. Methods: 15 pregnant women were scanned on a 3T MR scanner. For perfusion measurements, a velocity selective arterial spin labelling preparation module was placed before a multi-echo gradient echo EPI readout to ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Volumetric muscle loss (VML) due to trauma or surgery, often leads to physical impairments. Traditional treatments rely on autologous flaps, limited by muscle availability often leading to donor site morbidity. This study presents multimodal bioprinting as an innovative approach for fabricating vascularized muscle flaps with 3D‐printed macrovessels ...
