    • Heparin as an anticoagulant for the dielectric measurement of blood 

      Dunne, Eoghan; O'Halloran, Martin; Porter, Emily; Bonello, Julian; Farrugia, Lourdes; Sammut, Charles V.; Schembri-Wismayer, Pierre (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2019-01-23)
      Testing blood ex-vivo allows physicians to gain an understanding of what is happening within the human body. Once blood is extracted from the body, it begins to clot. This process can affect the outcome of blood tests, ...
    • Image-based classification of bladder state using electrical impedance tomography 

      Dunne, Eoghan; Santorelli, Adam; McGinley, Brian; Leader, Geraldine; O'Halloran, Martin; Porter, Emily (IOP Publishing, 2018-12-03)
      Objective: In this study, we examine the potential of using machine learning classification to determine the bladder state ( not full , full ) with electrical impedance tomography (EIT) images of the pelvic region. Accurate ...
    • A realistic pelvic phantom for electrical impedance measurement 

      Dunne, Eoghan; McGinley, Brian; O'Halloran, Martin; Porter, Emily (IOP Publishing, 2018-03-15)
      Objective: To design and fabricate an anatomically and conductively accurate phantom for electrical impedance studies of non-invasive bladder volume monitoring. Approach: A modular pelvic phantom was designed and fabricated, ...
