Purpose: We present the test bench results of a valveless total artificial heart that is potentially compatible with the pediatric population. Methods: The RollingHeart is a valveless volumetric pump generating pulsatile flow. It consists of a single spher ...
In pulmonary arterial hypertension, plexiform lesions are associated with severe arterial obstruction and right ventricular failure. Exploring their structure and position is crucial for understanding the interplay between hemodynamics and vascular remodel ...
Autofluorescence (AF) imaging is a powerful tool for the detection of (pre-)neoplastic lesions in the bronchi. Several endoscopic imaging systems exploit the spectral and intensity contrast of AF between healthy and (pre-)neoplastic bronchial tissues, yet, ...
This study aimed to explore the value of synchrotron-based phase-contrast microcomputed tomography (micro-CT) in pulmonary vascular pathobiology. The microanatomy of the lung is complex with intricate branching patterns. Tissue sections are therefore diffi ...
To detect bronchial carcinoma by autofluorescence, we measured the spectra of tumor and normal tissue in situ, in an in vivo model and in vitro by fiber optic spectrometer and two-dimensional resolved microspectroscopy. The in situ measurements were perfor ...
The aim of this thesis is to optimise and gain fundamental information on two applications of photomedicine using fluorescence imaging and spectrofluorometry: (1) the detection of early bronchial cancer by autofluorescence imaging and (2) the endometrial a ...
The early detection and localization of bronchial cancer remains a challenging task. Autofluorescence bronchoscopy is emerging as a useful diagnostic tool with improved sensitivity and specificity. Evidence exists that the native fluorescence or autofluore ...
