Investigation of temperature-dependent viscoelastic properties of thermal lesions in ex vivo animal liver tissue.
The viscoelastic characteristics of thermal lesions in ex vivo animal liver are investigated in this paper. Characterization of the moduli of thermal lesions prepared at several temperatures will provide additional information for the elastographic monitoring of radio frequency ablation of hepatic tumors. In this study, the frequency-dependent complex modulus of thermal lesions prepared at temp...
متن کاملModeling Viscoelastic Wall Properties of Ovine Arteries
INTRODUCTION Generation of a complete map of arterial wall mechanical properties can improve treatment of cardiovascular diseases via contributions to design of patient specific vascular substitutes used to alleviate athero-sclerosis and stenoses, which are predominant in arterial pathways (i.e., abdominal aorta, carotids, or femoral arteries). Clinically useful estimation of arterial propertie...
متن کاملHyperelastic and Viscoelastic Properties of Brain Tissue in Tension
Mechanical characterization of brain tissue at high loading velocities is particularly important for modelling Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). During severe impact conditions, brain tissue experiences a mixture of compression, tension and shear. Diffuse axonal injury (DAI) occurs in animals and humans when the strains and strain rates exceed 10% and 10/s, respectively. Knowing the mechanical prop...
متن کاملSemi-intact ex vivo approach to investigate spinal somatosensory circuits
The somatosensory input that gives rise to the perceptions of pain, itch, cold and heat are initially integrated in the superficial dorsal horn of the spinal cord. Here, we describe a new approach to investigate these neural circuits in mouse. This semi-intact somatosensory preparation enables recording from spinal output neurons, while precisely controlling somatosensory input, and simultaneou...
متن کاملRefined ex-vivo rodent heart model reduces in vivo experimentation
To use blood in the Langendorff settings one has to substantially reduce the volume of the circulation circuit. The perfusion volume of a standard Langendorff system is about 100 ml and the priming volume of the smallest commercially available oxygenator is 50 ml. Simple calculations indicate that about 10-12 rats or 60-70 mice have to be sacrificed to obtain the amount of blood required to per...
