Imaging of the mechanical properties of in vivo brain tissue could eventually lead to non-
invasive diagnosis of hydrocephalus, Alzheimer's disease and other pathologies known to …

This study investigates the effects of different solid models on predictions of brain shift for
three craniotomies. We created a generic 3D brain model based on healthy human brain …

Birth trauma affects millions of women and infants worldwide. Levator ani muscle avulsions
can be responsible for long-term morbidity, associated with 13–36% of women who deliver …

The tentative variation of the mechanical impedance, of a cylindrical sample of cerebral
material, has been achieved by Vibrometer Laser according to the frequency. The studied …

Résumé La tête est la partie du corps la plus menacée par les lésions mortelles au cours
des accidents. Ce travail présente une tentative de modélisation du module de cisaillement …

We present results of numerical simulations that further validate the critical limits we
previously proposed for our universal Brain Injury Criterion (BIC). The BIC extends the …

Recent developments in computer-integrated surgery and in tissue-engineered constructs
necessitate advances in experimental and analytical techniques in characterizing properties …

Bitemporal hemianopia is a type of partial visual field defect in which vision is impaired in
the temporal halves of the visual fields of both eyes. Bitemporal hemianopia has many …

La neurocirugía necesita altos niveles de precisión debido a la complejidad del cerebro.
Para ello, los cirujanos cuentan con imágenes pre-operatorias que permiten identificar la …

In this study a novel computational model, formulated via a finite-element technique and
based on the Biot's linear poroelasticity theory, is developed for the assessment of brain shift …
