Electrical impedance tomography for static lesion detection and identification in the brain
McDermott, Barry James (NUI Galway, 2020-08-20)There is a clinical need for a novel approach to the detection of brain haemorrhage and clots. Such static lesions are characteristic of important conditions such as stroke, and traumatic brain injury. In these conditions ... -
Electromagnetic modelling and signal processing algorithms for a microwave-tomography-based medical device prototype to monitor osteoporosis
Amin, Bilal (NUI Galway, 2021-12-12)Osteoporosis, characterised as low bone mass, causes continuous systematic deterioration of the trabecular bone structure and leads to bone fragility and fractures. Current clinical practices widely employ dual-energy X-ray ... -
Miniaturisation of conductivity probe design and acquisition of dielectric properties of tissues for catheter cardiac ablation applications
Ištuk, Niko (NUI Galway, 2024-04-18)Atrial fibrillation, a prevalent cardiac arrhythmia, requires precise and effective treatments such as cardiac ablation. The efficacy of these treatments is closely tied to a comprehensive understanding of the dielectric ... -
Probe modelling and experimentation for advancing atrial fibrillation treatment using irreversible electroporation therapy
Benchakroun, Hamza (NUI Galway, 2024-02-01)Atrial fibrillation (AF) poses a significant global health challenge, with the left atrial appendage (LAA) identified as a frequent source. Irreversible electroporation (IRE) has emerged as a promising non-thermal ...
