Preclinical Evaluation of Photoacoustic Imaging as a Novel Noninvasive Approach to Detect an Orthopaedic Implant Infection

Riccardo Sinisi, Pavlo Khodakivskyi, Ghyslain Martial Alain Budin

Introduction: Diagnosing-prosthetic joint infection (PJI) poses significant challenges, and current modalities are fraught with low sensitivity and/or potential morbidity. Photoacoustic imaging (PAI) is a novel ultrasound-based modality with potential for ...

Geomechanical modelling of CO₂ injection in deep aquifers

Chao Li

CO2 sequestration in deep geological formations is considered as a promising technology to reduce the impact of CO2 on the greenhouse effect. Practically, large-volume of CO2 could be injected into a system that consists of a highly porous host reservoir c ...

A hydromechanical approach to assess CO2 injection-induced surface uplift and caprock deflection

Lyesse Laloui, Chao Li

This study focuses on the derivation of a semi-analytical approach for the evaluation of surface uplift and caprock deflection induced by underground injection of CO2. The adopted methodology includes the development of a mathematical model that incorporat ...

Thermal and capillary effects on the caprock mechanical stability at In Salah, Algeria

Victor Vilarrasa Riano

Thermo-mechanical effects are important in geologic carbon storage because CO2 will generally reach the storage formation colder than the rock, inducing thermal stresses. Capillary functions, i.e., retention and relative permeability curves, control the CO ...

Coating nanocarriers with hyaluronic acid facilitates intravitreal drug delivery for retinal gene therapy

Hendrik Georges Deschout

Retinal gene therapy could potentially affect the lives of millions of people suffering from blinding disorders. Yet, one of the major hurdles remains the delivery of therapeutic nucleic acids to the retinal target cells. Due to the different barriers that ...
