A Biomechanical Study on the Effects of Struts of Z Shaped Stent Grafts on the Blood Vessel Wall Tissue Layers1
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
The Role of Simulation in the Design of a Semi-Enclosed Tubular Embolus Retrieval
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A numerical analysis of a semi-enclosed tubular mechanical embolus retrieval device (MERD) for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is presented. In this research, the finite element analysis (FEA) methodology is ...
Using Simulation to Help Specify Design Parameters for Vacuum-Assisted Needle Biopsy Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Needle biopsy is a routine medical procedure for examining tissue or biofluids for the presence of disease using standard methods of pathology. The finite element analysis (FEA) methodology can provide guidance for optimizing ...
Statistical Shape Modeling and Prediction of Lumbar Spine Morphology in Patients With Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A lumbar spine statistical shape model (SSM) was developed to explain morphological differences in a population with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). Computed tomography (CT) was used to collect data on the lumbar ...
