Microwave Ablation Trocar Operated at Dual Tine Dual-Frequency: A Numerical Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Microwave ablation (MWA) is a minimally invasive thermal ablation technique that has the advantages of obtaining high intratumoral temperatures, less treatment time, and large ablation region as compared to other thermal ...
Quantification of Thermal Injury to the Healthy Tissue Due to Imperfect Electrode Placements During Radiofrequency Ablation of Breast Tumor
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has emerged as an alternative treatment modality for treating various tumors with minimum intervention. The application of RFA in treating breast tumor is still in its infancy stage. Nevertheless, ...
Numerical Investigation on the Effect of Different Physiological Cancerous Breast Parameters on the Output of Microwave Ablation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Microwave ablation (MWA) is a newly developed minimally invasive tumor therapy which possesses several advantages over the existing thermal therapies. Despite the several advantages, MWA also suffers same disadvantages ...

Numerical Modeling of Conical-Shaped Bone Marrow Biopsy Needle Into Multilayer Iliac Crest Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Bone marrow biopsy (BMB) is a standard technique used in various therapies, research, diagnosis, and prognosis. The extensive forces during biopsy result in un-necessary stress concentrations that are primarily hazardous ...
Thermal Assessment of Ablation Limit of Subsurface Tumor During Focused Ultrasound and Laser Heating
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Theoretical study on the thermal assessment of two types of tumor ablation techniques, viz., focused laser for ablating skin lesion and focused highfrequency ultrasound for ablating breast tumor has been presented in this ...
