Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is an increasingly accessible skill, allowing for the decentralization of its use to nonspecialist healthcare workers to guide routine clinical decision-making. The advent of ultrasound-on-a-chip has transformed the technol ...
Main project. Chronic episodes of sudden pulmonary deterioration followed by insufficient recoveries from antibiotic treatments are the main driver of morbidity and mortality in Cystic Fibrosis (CF). Study of recovery is performed to improve CF care monito ...
During puberty and pregnancy, the breast undergoes major restructuring in order to produce a structure that can secrete and eject copious amounts of milk. By analogy to other branched organs such as the lung or the salivary gland, a large increase in surfa ...
We are interested in the mathematical modeling of the deformation of the human lung tissue, called the lung parenchyma, during the respiration process. The parenchyma is a foam-like elastic material containing millions of air-filled alveoli connected by a ...
Intravenous administration of perfluorocarbon (PFC) compounds can lead to pulmonary hyperinflation and respiratory distress in some mammals. This study was designed to quantify the effects of two PFC emulsions on the dynamic behavior of lung surfactant and ...
Perfluorocarbon (PFC) compounds induce pulmonary hyperinflation and respiratory distress in some animals following intravenous administration. This study was designed to quantify the effects of two PFC emulsions on lung volumes and compliance and to identi ...
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the 5(th) most prevalent disease worldwide leading to severe morbidity and mortality in developed countries. The disease is strongly associated with smoking, and can be characterized by progressive and irreve ...
Mechanical ventilation can damage the lungs, a condition called Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury (VILI). However, the mechanisms leading to VILI at the microscopic scale remain poorly understood. Here we investigated the within-tidal dynamics of cyclic recru ...
In this paper we develop and study numerically a model to describe some aspects of sound propagation in the human lung, considered as a deformable and viscoelastic porous medium (the parenchyma) with millions of alveoli filled with air. Transmission of sou ...
AREG-/- mice demonstrate impaired mammary development and form only rudimentary ductal epithelial trees, however, AREG-/- glands are still capable of undergoing alveologenesis and lactogenesis during pregnancy. Transplantation of AREG-/- mammary epithelial ...
