To date, analysis of temperature in the drill area of cortical bone have been limited to measurements with thermocouple systems at a certain distance from the drill hole. Many authors equate this temperature measurement with the drill--cortical bone interface temperature. In order show that there is a temperature difference, a drill hole was simulated with the aid of the "Finite Element Method". The interface temperature was calculated by the energy distribution. It was shown, that for "dry" and "watercooled" drilling, the drill hole temperature was 13 degrees C higher than the temperature measured with the thermocouple systems at a distance 0.5 mm of from the drill hole. In particular when using "watercooled" drills for bone and dental surgery, the temperature may be higher than the bone damage limit of 44 degrees C for lengthy and 50 degrees C for brief drilling. 相似文献

Indocyanine green (ICG) is a photosensitive reagent with clinically relevant diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Recently, ICG has been investigated for its utility as an exogenous chromophore during laser-induced heating. However, ICG's effectiveness remains hindered by its molecular instability, rapid circulation kinetics, and nonspecific systemic distribution. To overcome these limitations, we have encapsulated ICG within dextran-coated mesocapsules (MCs). Our objective in this study was to explore the ability of MCs to induce thermal damage in response to laser irradiation. To simulate tumorous tissue targeted with MCs, cylindrical phantoms were prepared consisting of gelatin, intralipid emulsion, and various concentrations of MCs. The phantoms were embedded within fresh chicken breast tissue representing surrounding normal tissue. The tissue models were irradiated at lambda = 808 nm for 10 min at constant power (P = 4.2 W). Five hypodermic thermocouples were used to record the temperature at various depths below the tissue surface and transverse distances from the laser beam central axis during irradiation. Temperature profiles were processed to remove the baseline temperature and influence of light absorption by the thermocouple and subsequently used to calculate a damage index based on the Arrhenius damage integral. Tissue models containing MCs experienced a maximum temperature change of 18.5 degrees C. Damage index calculations showed that the heat generation from MCs at these parameters is sufficient to induce thermal damage, while no damage was predicted in the absence of MCs. ICG maintains its heat-generating capabilities in response to NIR laser irradiation when encapsulated within MCs. Such encapsulation provides a potentially useful methodology for laser-induced therapeutic strategies. 相似文献

Stem thermocouple hygrometers were subjected to transient and stable thermal gradients while in contact with reference solutions of NaCl. Both dew point and psychrometric voltages were directly related to zero offset voltages, the latter reflecting the size of the thermal gradient. Although slopes were affected by absolute temperature, they were not affected by water potential. One hygrometer required a correction of 1.75 bars water potential per microvolt of zero offset, a value that was constant from 20 to 30 C. 相似文献

Thermo-mechanical equations were developed from machining theory to predict heat generation due to drilling and were coupled with a heat transfer FEM simulation to predict the temperature rise and thermal injury in bone during a drilling operation. The rotational speed, feed rate, drill geometry and bone material properties were varied in a parametric analysis to determine the importance of each on temperature rise and therefore on thermal damage. It was found that drill speed, feed rate and drill diameter had the most significant thermal impact while changes in drill helix angle, point angle and bone thermal properties had relatively little effect. 相似文献

Water jet techniques have been used in industrial cutting, drilling and cleaning applications for more than 30 years. Plain water is typically used for the cutting of non-metallic materials. The addition of abrasive substances to the stream allows almost any material to be cut. The first medical applications were reported in the early 1980s, when the water jet was used to cut organs. The present study investigates the use of water jet cutting technology for endoprosthesis revision surgery. Bone and PMMA (polymethylmethacrylate) samples were cut at different pressures using an industrial water jet cutting device. Using plain water at 400 bar, PMMA was cut selectively without damaging the bone; above 400 bar, bone was also cut, but the cutting depths in PMMA were significantly greater (p < 0.05). Adding a water-soluble abrasive disaccharide to the water results in a significantly higher removal rate for both materials (p < 0.05), but selectivity is lost, although the differences in cutting depth between the two materials was significant (p < 0.05). With an abrasive, the quality of the cut was better for both materials. The water jet technology--in particular the abrasive technique--can be used to cut biomaterials such as bone and bone cement. The diameter of the jet is a great advantage when working in the confined area at the prosthesis interface. The cutting process is essentially cold, thus eliminating a thermal effect, and the jet reaction forces are relatively low. Accurate manipulation of the hydro jet nozzle is possible both manually and by robot. The results obtained show that it is possible to remove prostheses with this cutting technique, rapidly and with little damage to the surrounding tissue. Problem areas are the development of sterile pumps and the "depth control" of the jet. 相似文献

An easy-to-make, sensitive, thin, flexible, multisensor probe for in vivo tissue temperature profile measurement is described. It is essentially a multijunction thermocouple (i.e., a multicouple) of type-T composition. Enamel-insulated copper wires (38 gauge) were soldered 5 mm apart to one common uninsulated constantan wire (36 gauge) and introduced into a polyethylene tube sealed at one end. The total outside diameter of the multicouple probe is less than 1 mm, and the maximum number of junctions using the specified wire sizes is approximately 16. This design permits the instantaneous measurement of a tissue temperature profile at 5-mm intervals over a distance of approximately 8 cm. An extensive calibration for the thermal conductivity effect (k effect) along the multicouple wires by means of a limb model is presented. The results show that the temperature readings of the individual junctions are significantly affected by the k effect when a thermal gradient exists along the multicouple, as is usually the case during tissue temperature measurements. However, calibration of the multicouple for the k effect yields a measurement accuracy of +/- 0.1 degree C under a wide range of gradients. This probe can be implanted in tissues to measure thermal gradients under different physiological conditions. 相似文献

Working on bone is a major aspect of orthopaedic surgery. Despite its well-known appreciable thermal effects on the edges of the bone cut, the oscillating bone saw blade the oscillating saw remains the standard instrument both for cutting long bones and creating a bed for an endoprosthesis. The application of abrasive water jets offers the possibility of achieving an extremely precise curved cut in bone with no accompanying thermal effect. The thermographically measured absolute temperature increase at the cut edges seen with the water jet was 13 K maximum. The small process forces permit the application in automated handling systems. 相似文献

Many woodland understories are managed with prescribed fire. While prescribed burns intended to manipulate understory vegetation
and fuels usually do not cause excessive tree mortality, sublethal canopy damage may occur and can affect tree vigor and reproductive
output. We monitored Quercus garryana trees in western Washington, USA with multiple canopy thermocouples during three prescribed burns. Peak temperatures recorded
in tree canopies ranged from 36 to 649°C. We assessed leaf damage immediately after burning, and flower, leaf and acorn production
in the following year in the vicinity of each thermocouple. Leaf scorch first occurred with peak thermocouple temperatures
around 45°C, was variable up to 75°C, but above 75°C all leaves were killed. Buds, including their reproductive and leaf organs
were more resistant to heat damage than leaves, but leaf scorch had predictive value in forecasting bud organ damage. Staminate
and pistillate inflorescences and acorn production per bud decreased and bud mortality increased with maximum thermocouple
temperature. In two burns where the highest peak temperatures reached 137°C, there was no difference in leaf production between
burned and control plots in the spring following burning. However, no staminate or pistillate inflorescences were produced
when thermocouple peak temperatures went above 55 or 68°C, respectively. While heat damage to bud organs was detected, production
of reproductive organs was also curtailed at temperatures lower than could reasonably be attributed to heat damage. Thus,
it is probable that some other fire-related factor, possibly smoke, was also involved. 相似文献

The objective of this research is to analyze and model the decreases in skin temperature when the hand makes contact with an object at room temperature so that thermal feedback can be incorporated into haptic displays. A thermal model is proposed that predicts the thermal responses of the skin and object surface as well as the heat flux exchanged during hand-object interactions. The model was evaluated by comparing the theoretical predictions of temperature changes to those experimentally measured using an infrared thermal measurement system. The thermal measurement system was designed to overcome the limitations imposed by contact thermal sensors, and was able to measure skin temperature during contact, together with the contact area and contact force. The experimental results indicated that over the pressure range of 0.73-10.98 kPa, changes in skin temperature were well localized to the contact area and were affected by contact pressure. The pressure in turn influenced both thermal contact resistance and blood flow. Over the range of contact forces typically used in manual exploration, blood perfusion and metabolic heat generation do not appear to have a significant effect on the skin's thermal responses. The theoretical predictions and the measured data were consistent in characterizing the time course and amplitude of the skin temperature change during contact with differences typically being less than 1 degrees C between the two for pressures greater than 4 kPa. These findings indicate that the proposed thermal model is able to characterize and predict the skin temperature responses during hand-object interactions and could be used in a thermal display that simulates the properties of different materials. 相似文献

DNA amplification using Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) in a small volume is used in Lab-on-a-chip systems involving DNA manipulation. For few microliters of volume of liquid, it becomes difficult to measure and monitor the thermal profile accurately and reproducibly, which is an essential requirement for successful amplification. Conventional temperature sensors are either not biocompatible or too large and hence positioned away from the liquid leading to calibration errors. In this work we present a fluorescence based detection technique that is completely biocompatible and measures directly the liquid temperature. PCR is demonstrated in a 3 μL silicon-glass microfabricated device using non-contact induction heating whose temperature is controlled using fluorescence feedback from SYBR green I dye molecules intercalated within sensor DNA. The performance is compared with temperature feedback using a thermocouple sensor. Melting curve followed by gel electrophoresis is used to confirm product specificity after the PCR cycles. 相似文献

A finite element technique was developed to investigate the thermal behavior of bone cement in joint replacement procedures. Thermal tests were designed and performed to provide the parameters in a kinetic model of bone cement exothermic polymerization. The kinetic model was then coupled with an energy balance equation using a finite element formulation to predict the temperature history and polymerization development in the bone-cement-prosthesis system. Based on the temperature history, the possibility of the thermal bone necrosis was then evaluated. As a demonstration, the effect of cement mantle thickness on the thermal behavior of the system was investigated. The temperature profiles in the bone-cement-prosthesis system have shown that the thicker the cement, the higher the peak temperature in the bone. In the 7 mm thick cement case, a peak temperature of over 55 degrees C was predicted. These high temperatures occurred in a small region near the bone/cement interface. No damage was predicted in the 3 mm and 5 mm cement mantle thickness cases. Although thermal damage was predicted in the bone for the 7 mm mantle thickness case, the amount of thermal necrosis predicted was minimal. If more cement is used in the surgical procedure, more heat will be generated and the potential for thermal bone damage may rise. The systems should be carefully selected to reduce thermal tissue damage when more cement is used. The methodology developed in this paper provides a numerical tool for the quantitative simulation of the thermal behavior of bone-cement-prosthesis designs. 相似文献

Measurement of transient and residual stresses during polymerization of bone cement for cemented hip implants 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The initial fixation of a cemented hip implant relies on the strength of the interface between the stem, bone cement and adjacent bone. Bone cement is used as grouting material to fix the prosthesis to the bone. The curing process of bone cement is an exothermic reaction where bone cement undergoes volumetric changes that will generate transient stresses resulting in residual stresses once polymerization is completed. However, the precise magnitude of these stresses is still not well documented in the literature. The objective of this study is to develop an experiment for the direct measurement of the transient and residual radial stresses at the stem-cement interface generated during cement polymerization. The idealized femoral-cemented implant consists of a stem placed inside a hollow cylindrical bone filled with bone cement. A sub-miniature load cell is inserted inside the stem to make a direct measurement of the radial compressive forces at the stem-cement interface, which are then converted to radial stresses. A thermocouple measures the temperature evolution during the polymerization process. The results show the evolution of stress generation corresponding to volumetric changes in the cement. The effect of initial temperature of the stem and bone as well as the cement-bone interface condition (adhesion or no adhesion) on residual radial stresses is investigated. A maximum peak temperature of 70 degrees C corresponds to a peak in transient stress during cement curing. Maximum radial residual stresses of 0.6MPa in compression are measured for the preheated stem. 相似文献

Coral reefs are increasingly affected by high-temperature stress events and associated bleaching. Monitoring and predicting these events have largely utilized sea surface temperature data, due to the convenience of using large-scale remotely sensed satellite measurements. However, coral bleaching has been observed to vary in severity throughout the water column, and variations in coral thermal stress across depths have not yet been well investigated. In this study, in situ water temperature data from 1999 to 2011 from three depths were used to calculate thermal stress on a coral reef in Bahia Almirante, Bocas del Toro, Panama, which was compared to satellite surface temperature data and thermal stress calculations for the same area and time period from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Coral Reef Watch Satellite Bleaching Alert system. The results show similar total cumulative annual thermal stress for both the surface and depth-stratified data, but with a striking difference in the distribution of that stress among the depth strata during different high-temperature events, with the greatest thermal stress unusually recorded at the deepest measured depth during the most severe bleaching event in 2005. Temperature records indicate that a strong density-driven temperature inversion may have formed in this location in that year, contributing to the persistence and intensity of bleaching disturbance at depth. These results indicate that depth may not provide a stress refuge from high water temperature events in some situations, and in this case, the water properties at depth appear to have contributed to greater coral bleaching at depth compared to near-surface locations. This case study demonstrates the importance of incorporating depth-stratified temperature monitoring and small-scale oceanographic and hydrologic data for understanding and predicting local reef responses to elevated water temperature events. 相似文献

Ultrafast lasers are promising tools for surgical applications requiring precise tissue cutting. Shallow ablation depth and slow rate as well as collateral damage are common barriers limiting the use of laser in clinical applications. Localized cooling with water and/or air jet is known to reduce collateral thermal damage. We studied the influence of environmental conditions including air, compressed air flow, still water and water jet on ablation depth, ablation rate and surface morphology on bovine bone samples with an 800 nm femtosecond laser. At 15 J/cm2, no thermal effect was observed by electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy. The experimental results indicate that environmental conditions play a significant role in laser ablation. The deepest cavity and highest ablation rate were achieved under the compressed air flow condition, which is attributed to debris removal during the ablation process. The shallowest ablation depth and lowest ablation rates were associated with water flushing. For surface morphology, smooth surface and the absence of microcracks were observed under air flow conditions, while rougher surfaces and minor microcracks were observed under other conditions. These results suggest that ultrafast ablation of bone can be more efficient and with better surface qualities if assisted with blowing air jet. 相似文献

Conductive keratoplasty (CK) is a sub-ablative thermal therapy used to treat hyperopia and presbyopia. In this study, a 3-D finite element model of the cornea was developed to predict the transient temperature distributions and the resultant thermal damage fields in the cornea during simulated CK procedures. The model incorporated collagen denaturation and vaporization of water as well as ablation-induced thermal/electrical contact loss. The effects of the radiofrequency power applied on the electrode and the duration of the treatment on the extent of thermal damage in the tissue were examined and compared with the previously published experimental results on human cornea. It was shown that with clinical settings (60% power and 0.6 s treatment duration), the temperature maximum near the tip of the radiofrequency probe exceeded the temperature for vaporization. The results also indicated that the increase in the treatment duration had a much more significant effect on the size of the thermally modified region than increased radiofrequency power (as verified by the experimental results). The model predictions matched the experimental results well and showed the feasibility of using simulations to optimize thermal treatment of the cornea. 相似文献

Sap flow measurement has been widely used recently in studyingplant response to the environment, but results have not alwaysbeen satisfactory. The possibility that the non-uniform distributionof the conducting elements in the stem cross-sectional areaintroduces error in the measurements was examined. The heatpulse method, combined with anatomical observations of the stemat the point of sap flow measurement, was applied in corn andsunflower, to study the interaction between anatomical structureand sap flow distribution. The probability of the temperaturesensor being in contact with conducting elements was stronglyaffected by its insertion depth into the stem; the measuredheat pulse velocity for a given transpirational flux was correlatedwith the number of conducting elements in contact with the sensor.Consequently, the calibration coefficient is affected by theposition of the thermocouple junction in relation to the conductingelements. This dependence of apparent heat pulse velocity ondensity of conducting elements suggests that thermal equilibrationin species with large stems may not be achieved within the limitedtime of heat dissipation. The relationship between sap flowand leaf area of single plants was used to test the consistencyand the accuracy of the sap flow measurements. The ratio ofmeasured to potential transpiration was used to validate theuse under field conditions, of the calibration coefficient determinedin potted plants.

Conventional tools used in prosthetic revision surgery have a limited range of action within the narrow cement mantle. Water jet cutting technology permits tiny and precisely controlled cuts, and may therefore be an alternative method of bone cement removal. Our study compares the cutting performance on bone cement (PMMA) and bone of a pulsed water jet and a continuous water jet. The aim of the study was to establish whether selective removal of PMMA is possible. 55 bone specimens (bovine femora) and 32 specimens of PMMA were cut with a continuous and a pulsed water jet at different pressures (40 MPa, 60 MPa) and pulse frequencies (0Hz, 50Hz, 250Hz). To ensure comparability of the results, the depths of cut were related to the hydraulic power of that part of the jet actually impinging on the material. While for PMMA the power-related depth of cut increased significantly with the pulse frequency, this did not apply to bone. The cuts produced in bone were sharp-edged. Since PMMA is more brittle than bone, the water jet caused cracks that enlarged further until particles of bone broke away. Although selective removal of PMMA without doing damage to the bone was not possible at the investigated settings of the jet parameters, the results do show that a pulsed water jet can cut bone cement much more effectively than bone. This is an important advantage over conventional non-selective tools for the removal of bone cement. 相似文献

River floodplains are composed of a shifting mosaic of aquatic and terrestrial habitats. Each habitat type exhibits distinct
environmental and ecological properties. Temperature is a key property driving ecological processes and controlling the composition
and distribution of biota. However, given the size and complexity of floodplains, ground surveys based on point measurements
are spatially limited. In this study, we applied thermal infrared (IR) imagery to quantify surface temperature patterns at
12–15 min intervals over 24 h cycles in two near-natural Alpine river floodplains (Roseg, Tagliamento). Furthermore, vertical
temperature distribution was measured at 3–5 min intervals in unsaturated gravel sediment deposits (at 1 cm distances; 0–29 cm
depth). Each habitat type exhibited a distinct thermal signature creating a complex thermal mosaic. The diel temperature pulse
and maximum daily temperature were the main thermal components that differentiated habitat types. In both floodplains, exposed
gravel sediments exhibited the highest diel pulse (up to 23°C), whereas in aquatic habitats the pulse was as low as 11°C (main
channel in the Roseg floodplain). In the unsaturated gravel sediment deposits, the maximum diel kinetic temperature pulse
ranged from 40.4°C (sediment surface) to 2.7°C (29 cm sediment depth). Vertically, the spatiotemporal variation of temperature
was about as high as horizontally across the entire floodplain surface. This study emphasized that remotely sensed thermal
IR imagery provides a powerful non-invasive method to quantitatively assess thermal heterogeneity of complex aquatic and terrestrial
ecosystems at a resolution required to understand ecosystem processes and the distribution of biota. 相似文献
