      Experimental methods for flow and aerosol measurements in human airways and their replicas 

      Lizal, F.; Jedelsky, J.; Morgan, K.; Bauer, K.; Llop, J.; Cossio, U.; Kassinos, Stavros C.; Verbanck, S.; Ruiz-Cabello, J.; Santos, A.; Koch, E.; Schnabel, C. (2018)
      Recent developments in the prediction of local aerosol deposition in human lungs are driven by the fast development of computational simulations. Although such simulations provide results in unbeatable resolution, significant ...

      New image processing models for opacity image analysis in chest radiographs 

      Pattichis, Marios S.; Muralldharan, H.; Pattichis, Constantinos S.; Soliz, P. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2002)
      The aim of this research is to develop new image processing models that can be used to characterize single opacities and opacity density within pre-selected regions of interest (ROI). We derive our new image processing ...

      A screening system for the assessment of opacity profusion in chest radiographs of miners with pneumoconiosis 

      Pattichis, Marios S.; Pattichis, Constantinos S.; Christodoulou, Christodoulos I.; James, D.; Ketai, L.; Soliz, P. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2002)
      The aim of this study was to develop a screening system of chest radiographs of miners with pneumoconiosis. Chest radiographs were of coal mine or silica dust exposed miners participating in a health screening program. A ...

      Targeted Drug Delivery to Upper Airways Using a Pulsed Aerosol Bolus and Inhaled Volume Tracking Method 

      Ostrovski, Y.; Dorfman, S.; Mezhericher, M.; Kassinos, Stavros C.; Sznitman, J. (2018)
      The pulmonary route presents an attractive delivery pathway for topical treatment of lung diseases. While significant progress has been achieved in understanding the physical underpinnings of aerosol deposition in the ...
