Abstract Imaging the entire cardiomyocyte network in small animal hearts at single cell resolution is a formidable challenge. Optical microscopy provides sufficient contrast and 2d, however fails to deliver non-destructive 3d reconstructions with isotropic resolution.

Three key steps TRP were by high-speed X-ray radiography heat flow measurements: ignition, ending. Several tests carried out assess...
Battery safety design is important to consider from the individual Li-ion cell level of macro-system. On macro-level, failure in one single can lead propagation thermal runaway and rapidly set a whole battery pack on fire. Factors that impact outcome, such as model/chemistry electrical connection are here investigated using combination measurements. Several abusive tests were conducted, combining two different models (Molicel P42A LG M50, both 21700s) series parallel connections (16 per...

High-power ultrasonic horns operating at low frequency are known to generate a cone-shaped cavitation bubble cloud beneath them. The exact physical processes resulting in the conical structure still unclear mainly due challenges associated with their visualization. Herein, we address onset of by exploiting high-speed X-ray phase contrast imaging. It reveals that cone formation is not immediate but results from three-step phenomenology: (i) inception and oscillation single bubbles, (ii)...

INTRODUCTION: The mechanisms of lung inflation and deflation are only partially known. Ventilatory strategies to support function rely upon the idea that alveoli isotropic balloons progressively inflate or deflate pressure/volume curves derive by interplay critical opening pressures, closing history position inside lung. This notion has been recently challenged subpleural microscopy, magnetic resonance computed tomography. Phase-Contrast Synchrotron Radiation Computed Tomography (PC-SRCT)...

In this study, we compare imaging technique with conventional modalities osteoarthritis mouse model. contrast was performed on 6 post-mortem, monoiodoacetate-induced knees and control knees. The mice were then imaged using magnetic resonance micro computed tomography. Examples surrogate markers are reported: local distances within articular space,...
Abstract Ventilation is inhomogeneous in the lungs across species. It has been hypothesized that ventilation inhomogeneity largely determined by design of airway branching network. Because exchange gases at alveolar barrier more efficient when gas concentrations are evenly distributed subacinar length scales, it assumed a ‘functional unit’ exists within lung periphery, where concentration becomes uniform. On other hand, because morphology pulmonary airways and alveoli, distribution inhaled...
Modern ventilatory strategies are based on the assumption that lung terminal airspaces act as isotropic balloons progressively accommodate gas. Phase contrast synchrotron radiation computed tomography (PCSRCT) has recently challenged this concept, showing in healthy lungs, deflation mechanisms sequential de-recruitment of airspaces. Using PCSRCT scans an animal model acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), study examined whether numerosity (ASnum) and dimension (ASdim) change during a...
