Dynamic Modeling Of Cerebral Blood Flow Autoregulation Using ARX And Windkessel Models
(Biomedical Engineering, 2007-08-23)
Linear lumped parameter models like ARX and Windkessel models are simple, easy to solve, and find their application in real time modeling. The present study is focused on employing single input single output ARX and ...
Detection Of Sleep Disordered Breathing Using Electroencephalography
(Biomedical Engineering, 2007-08-23)
This study investigates the application of Electroencephalography (EEG) to detect Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) using power spectral analysis. A preliminary study was performed on 13 subjects (ages: 49.08 ± 8.82) ...
Fabrication And Mechanical Characterization Of A Two-ply Cross Fiber Stent And Fibers Comprising Blends Of Poly(L-lactic Acid)
(Biomedical Engineering, 2007-08-23)
Recent studies indicate that stabilization of vulnerable atherosclerotic plaques is critical for minimizing acute coronary syndromes. In this regard a new biodegradable stent design, the Two-ply cross fiber stent, has been ...
Biomechanical Properties Of Anterior Vaginal Wall Tissue In Post-menopausal Women
(Biomedical Engineering, 2007-08-23)
Cystocele repair in post-menopausal women suffering from urinary incontinence and associated vaginal prolapse is a common method of palliation. In this method, there is surgical reduction of vaginal tissue and the weak ...
Detection Of Positive Cancer Margins Intra-operatively During Nephrectomy And Prostatectomy Using Optical Reflectance Spectroscopy
(Biomedical Engineering, 2007-09-17)
In recent years optical spectroscopies have become the basis for popular research activity directed towards the development of novel, noninvasive technologies for tissue diagnostics. The motivation for my research was to ...
Investigation Of Breast Tumor Hemodynamics By Near Infrared Spectroscopy: Applications To Cancer Therapy Monitoring
(Biomedical Engineering, 2007-08-23)
Hyperoxic gas interventions using carbogen (95% O2 and 5% CO2) or oxygen has been tried to increase the tumor oxygenation since it will enhance the therapeutic effects on the tumors. Others in the laboratory had previously ...
Vascular Stent Analysis
(Biomedical Engineering, 2007-08-23)
It is important for cardiologist to understand the stresses and strains the stent experiences during deployment.
We created a 3-D model of the coiled stent which is exported into ANSYS creating the finite element model. ...
Design And Construction Of A Fast Spectrometer For Fourier Domain Optical Coherence Tomography
(Biomedical Engineering, 2007-08-23)
A fast spectrometer capable of operating at 27.8 KHz is designed and calibrated to work in the wavelength range of 700-900 nm, to perform Fourier Domain Optical Coherence Tomography (FD-OCT). The OCT system is based on ...
A Functional Analysis Of The Mechanically And Metabolically Sensitive Components Of The Skeletal Muscle Exercise Pressor Reflex In Hypertension
(Biomedical Engineering, 2007-08-23)
Background - In hypertension, physical activity creates a risk for adverse cardiac events by causing exaggerated increases in mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR). One physiological mechanism responsible for ...
High Resolution Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) System For Integration With A Multimodal Optical Imaging Workstation
(Biomedical Engineering, 2007-08-23)
Development and construction of a high resolution Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) system is described. OCT is one of the modalities in an integrated multimode optical imaging workstation built around an inverted ...
