Radiofrequency (RF) hyperthermia has been widely used for tumor ablation since magnetic-fluid-hyperthermia (MFH) can be utilized for increasing temperature in tumor-region as a complementary-method for hyperthermia. In this study, the effectiveness of using the magnetite-nanoparticles (Fe3O4) in RF hyperthermia for breast cancer (BC) treatment by determin ...

Magnetorheological elastomers (MREs) are a class of smart materials with rubber-like qualities, demonstrating revertible magnetic field-dependent viscoelastic properties, which makes them an ideal candidate for development of the next generation of adaptive vibration absorbers. This research study aims at the development of a finite element model using mi ...

The current study investigated the geometry optimization of a hybrid-driven (based on the combination of air pressure and tendon tension) soft robot for use in robot-assisted intra-bronchial intervention. Soft robots, made from compliant materials, have gained popularity for use in surgical interventions due to their dexterity and safety. The current stud ...

Elastography is a medical imaging modality that enables visualization of tissue stiffness. It involves quasi-static or harmonic mechanical stimulation of the tissue to generate a displacement field which is used as input in an inversion algorithm to reconstruct tissue elastic modulus. This paper considers quasi-static stimulation and presents a novel inve ...

Ultrasound-driven microbubbles, typically between 1 and 8 µm in diameter, are resonant scatterers that are employed as diagnostic contrast agents and emerging as potentiators of targeted therapies. Microbubbles are administered in populations whereby their radial dynamics - key to their effectiveness - are greatly affected by intrinsic (e.g. bubble size) ...

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation has shown superior clinical outcomes compared to open aortic valve replacement surgery. The loss of the natural sense of touch, inherited from its minimally invasive nature, could lead to misplacement of the valve in the aortic annulus. In this study, a cylindrical optical fiber sensor is proposed to be integrated w ...
