Nanowired three dimensional cardiac patches
Engineered cardiac patches for treating damaged heart tissues after a heart attack are normally produced by seeding heart cells within three-dimensional porous biomaterial scaffolds. These biomaterials, which are usually made of either biological polymers such as alginate or synthetic polymers such as poly(lactic acid) (PLA), help cells organize into functioning tissues, but poor conductivity o...
متن کاملThree-dimensional Surface Curvature Estimation Using Quadric Surface Patches
Recent advances in 3D scanning technology have enabled the development of interesting applications of 3D human body modelling and shape analysis, especially in the areas of virtual shopping, custom clothing and sizing surveys for the clothing industry. Most of the current applications have so far been concerned with automatic tape measurement extraction, i.e. simulation of the manual procedure ...
متن کامل[Three-dimensional imaging in cardiac resynchronization therapy].
Cardiac resynchronization therapy improves clinical symptoms and prognosis of heart failure patients. However, it has been shown that up to 40% of patients do not respond to this therapy. Three main determinants of cardiac resynchronization therapy response have been identified: left ventricular dyssynchrony, left ventricular lead position, and extent and location of myocardial scar tissue. Two...

OBJECTIVE To compare the determination of stroke volume (SV) and cardiac output (CO) using 2-dimensional (2D) versus 3-dimensional (3D) transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). DESIGN Prospective observational study. SETTING Tertiary care university hospital. PARTICIPANTS 35 patients without structural valve abnormalities undergoing isolated coronary artery bypass grafting. INTERVENTIONS...
متن کاملOutsourcing through Three-dimensional Competition
In this paper, we study an outsourced supply chain consisting of one buyer and two suppliers in which the buyer outsources manufacturing of a physical product to two competing suppliers. The suppliers compete for the buyers' demands share, and the buyer allocates the demands to the competing suppliers based on three-dimensional allocation functions. We consider two certain types of allocation f...
