Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) combined with saline infusion into tissue is a promising technique to ablate larger tumours. Nevertheless, the application of saline-infused RFA remains at clinical trials due to the contradictory findings as a result of the inconsistencies in experimental procedures. These inconsistencies not only magnify the number of factors to consider during the treatment, but also obscure the understanding of the role of saline in enlarging the coagulation zone. Consequently, this can result in major complications, which includes unwanted thermal damages to adjacent tissues and also incomplete ablation of the tumour. This review aims to identify the key factors of saline responsible for enlarging the coagulation zone during saline-infused RFA, and provide a proper understanding on their effects that is supported with findings from computational studies to ensure a safe and reliable cancer treatment.

AbstractThe unravelling of multilength-scale insert-generated turbulence, particularly, the induced-forcing plays critical role in the fundamental comprehension of energy formation and decay as a function of grid conformation. This study experimentally investigates the flow mechanical characteristics at ReDh = 4.1 × 104 for a regular-grid (RG), single-square-grid (SSG) and six 2D planar space-filling square-fractal-grids (SFG) of different fractal iterations (N), thickness ratios (tr) and blockage ratios (σ) via piezoelectric thin-film flapping velocimetry (PTFV). Thin-film’s tip-deflection (δrms) and voltage response (Vrms) analysis along the grids’ centreline reveals increasing flow fluctuation strength with increasing σ, tr and decreasing N, owing to higher shedding intensity of lower frequency, larger scale energy-containing vortices from thicker first iteration bar. However, higher: energy dissipation rate, centreline mean velocity decrement rate and local deceleration experienced in the turbulence decay region of larger tr grid, along with additional fractal scales lead to less potent flow-structure-interplay on thin-film undulation. More importantly, SSG-generated turbulence enables the generation of average (Vrms, δrms) and millinewton turbulence forcing Frms that are respectively, 9× and 5× larger than RG of similar σ, and 2× larger than the best performing N = 3 SFG. Our findings disclose the importance of grid geometrical management for effective utilisation of turbulence-generating grids in engineering applications.

AbstractA 3D stationary particle tracking velocimetry (SPTV) with a unique recursive corrective algorithm has been successfully established to detect the instantaneous regional fluid flow characteristics. The veracity of SPTV is corroborated by conducting actual displacement measurement validation, which gives a maximum percentage deviation of about 0.8%. This supports the accuracy of the current SPTV system in 3D position detection. More importantly, the SPTV detected velocity fluctuations are highly repeatable. In this study, SPTV is proven to be able to express the nature of chaotic fractal grid-induced regional turbulence, namely: the high turbulence intensity attributed to multilength-scale wake interactions, the Kolmogorov’s −5/3 law decay, vortex shedding, and the Gaussian flow undulations immediately leeward of the grid followed by non-Gaussian behaviour further downstream. Moreover, by comparing the flow fields between control no-grid and fractal grid-generated turbulence of a plate-fin array, SPTV reveals vigorous turbulence intensity, smaller regional integral-length-scale, and energetic vortex shedding at higher frequency for the latter, particularly between fins. Thereupon, it allows the unravelling of detailed thermofluid interplays of plate-fin heat sink heat transfer augmentation. The novelty of SPTV lies in its simplicity, use of low-cost off-the-shelf components, and most remarkably, low computational complexity in detecting fundamental characteristics of turbulent fluid flow.

Computed tomography (CT) is a common modality for liver diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up process. Providing accurate liver segmentation using CT images is a crucial step towards those tasks. In this paper, we propose a stacked 2-U-Nets model with three different types of skip connections. The proposed connections work to recover the loss of high-level features on the convolutional path of the first U-Net due to the pooling and the loss of low-level features during the upsampling path of the first U-Net. The skip connections concatenate all the features that are generated at the same level from the previous paths to the inputs of the convolutional layers in both paths of the second U-Net in a densely connected manner. We implement two versions of the model with different number of filters at each level of each U-Net by maximising the Dice similarity between the predicted liver region and that of the ground truth. The proposed models were trained with 3Dircadb public dataset that were released for Sliver and 3D liver and tumour segmentation challenges during MICCAI 2007-2008 challenge. The experimental results show that the proposed model outperformed the original U-Net and 2-U-Nets variants, and is comparable to the state-of-the-art mU-Net, DC U-Net, and Cascaded UNET.

AbstractThe centerline streamwise and cross-sectional (x/Dh = 0.425) turbulence characteristics of a 2D planar space-filling square-fractal-grid (SFG) composed of self-similar patterns superimposed at multiple length-scales is experimentally unveiled via piezoelectric thin-film flapping velocimetry (PTFV). The fluid–structure-interaction between a flexible piezoelectric thin-film and SFG-generated turbulent flow at ReDh = 4.1 × 104 is investigated by analysis of the thin-film’s mechanical response. Measurements of the thin-film-tip deflection δ and induced voltage V demonstrate increasing flow fluctuation strength in the turbulence generation region, followed by rapid decay further downstream of the SFG. Interestingly, SFG-induced turbulence enables the generation of maximum centerline thin-film’s response (Vrms, δrms) and millinewton turbulence-forcing (turbulence-induced excitation force acting on the thin-film) Frms which are respectively, 7× and 2× larger than the classical square-regular-grid of similar blockage ratio. The low frequency, large-scale energy-containing eddies at SFG’s central opening plays a critical role in driving the thin-film vibration. Most importantly, the SFG-generated turbulence at (y/T = 0.106, z/T = 0.125) away from the centerline allows equivalent mechanical characteristics of turbulence generation and decay, with peak of 1.9× nearer from grid. In short, PTFV provides a unique expression of the SFG-generated turbulence, of which, the equivalent turbulence length-scale and induced-forcing deduced could aid in deciphering the flow dynamics for effective turbulence management.
