Optimizing Prostate Specimen Handling for Diagnosis and Prognosis

2014
Optimal processing, handling, and sampling of prostatic biopsies, transurethral resections, and radical prostatectomy specimens ensure accurate diagnosis and staging. Prognostic factors derived from careful examination of tissue samples are critical for patient management, including cancer volume, extraprostatic extension, surgical margins, vascular ...

Specimen Handling and Optimal Processing

2018
Retrospective review of diagnostic errors in CNS intraoperative consultation often reveals that diagnosis was based on inadequate tissue sampling or subpar preparations. Therefore, the correct performance of the whole process should include proper identification of the specimen, appropriate transportation, adequate tissue sampling, careful achievement ...

Optimal processing of ESD specimens to avoid pathological artifacts

Techniques in Coloproctology, 2018
En bloc endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) has been recently introduced as a treatment for precancerous/neoplastic gastrointestinal conditions. The aim of the present study was histological assessment of en bloc ESD specimens.Fifty-three ESD specimens were positioned over a cellulose acetate support (40 specimens; 12 from the upper gastrointestinal

Optimizing specimen collection for processing in clinical testing laboratories

European Journal of Operational Research, 2013
We study the logistics of specimen collection for a clinical testing laboratory that serves sites dispersed in an urban area. The specimens that accumulate at the customer sites throughout the working day are transported to the laboratory for processing.

Optimum Experimental Design by Shape Optimization of Specimens in Linear Elasticity

SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, 2018
Consider an estimation problem in linear elasticity described by an elliptic partial differential equation. The constitutive behavior of the material in the isotropic case is represented by two Lamé parameters \(\lambda,\mu\). Having information about the material behavior from tensile stress experiments, the parameters are estimated by optimum ...

Optimal Shape of Thin Tensile Test Specimen

Journal of the American Ceramic Society, 2007
A tensile test method involving shape optimization of a thin, planar specimen has been developed. The purpose was to reduce the stress concentration in the transition zone between a straight‐sided zone and a wider‐end zone. Three designs of specimen, including an ISO standard design, were investigated based on finite element ...

Fundamental problem in optimizing the biaxial testing specimen

Science China Technological Sciences, 2019
Most of the elements in structural design are subjected to the complex loading conditions that need to be predicted in advance for a reliable design. The failure prediction of these structural elements is based on the failure theories that employ the experimental data of the uniaxial, the biaxial and the shear tests.

Is There An Optimal Gauge Length for Dynamic Tensile Specimens?

Experimental Mechanics, 2014
This paper addresses the issue of the dynamic tensile specimen gauge length through an experimental-numerical approach. Emphasis is put on the combined issue of specimen equilibrium and uniformity of the stress and the strain fields in the gauge. The systematic comparison of long and short specimens reveals the unexpected, namely the superiority of the
