Influence of Needle Insertion Speed on Backflow for Convection-Enhanced Delivery
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Fluid flow back along the outer surface of a needle (backflow) can be a significant problem during the direct infusion of drugs into brain tissues for procedures such as convection-enhanced ...
A Biphasic Model for Micro-Indentation of a Hydrogel-Based Contact Lens
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The stiffness and hydraulic permeability of soft contact lenses may influence its clinical performance, e.g., on-eye movement, fitting, and wettability, and may be related to the occurrence of ...
Evaluation of a Voxelized Model Based on DCE-MRI for Tracer Transport in Tumor
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Recent advances in the treatment of cancer involving therapeutic agents have shown promising results. However, treatment efficacy can be limited due to inadequate and uneven uptake in solid ...
Voxelized Model of Interstitial Transport in the Rat Spinal Cord Following Direct Infusion Into White Matter
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Direct tissue infusion, e.g., convection-enhanced delivery (CED), is a promising local delivery technique for treating diseases of the central nervous system. Predictive models of spatial drug ...
