... treelike branched network was used to describe the complicated geometrical frame of blood vessels. The temperature distribution and ice crystal growth process in biological tissue including normal tissue and tumor embedded with two cryoprobes were numerically simulated. The effects of cooling rate, initial...

... the surface effects of the main blood vessel and organs in the cervicum. The present study sets up a theoretical foundation for using noncontact far-infrared imaging method for a reliable assessment of atherosclerosis plaque without causing any wound or radiation to human body. According to the above...

... prediction. Our results have illustrated a decrease in the temperature reduction with an increase in water flow rate in the glass tube. Previous theoretical analyses have demonstrated a reciprocal relationship between the blood flow rate and temperature decay along a blood vessel ( 18 23...
