Analysis of uncertainty and variability in finite element computational models for biomedical engineering: characterization and propagation
Mangado, Nerea; Piella, Gemma; Noailly, Jérôme; Pons Prats, Jordi; González Ballester, Miguel A. (Frontiers Media SA, 2016-11-07)
Article
Open AccessComputational modeling has become a powerful tool in biomedical engineering thanks to its potential to simulate coupled systems. However, real parameters are usually not accurately known, and variability is inherent in ... -
Computational evaluation of cochlear implant surgery outcomes accounting for uncertainty and parameter variability
Mangado, Nerea; Pons Prats, Jordi; Coma Company, Martí; Mistrik, Pavel; Piella, Gemma; Ceresa, Mario; González Ballester, Miguel A. (2018-05-23)
Article
Open AccessCochlear implantation (CI) is a complex surgical procedure that restores hearing in patients with severe deafness. The successful outcome of the implanted device relies on a group of factors, some of them unpredictable ... -

Design and evaluation of an antenna applicator for a microwave colonoscopy system
Guardiola, Marta; Djafri, Kahina; Challal, Mouloud; González Ballester, Miguel A.; Fernández-Esparrach, Glòria; Camara, Oscar; Romeu Robert, Jordi (2019-08-01)
Article
Open AccessThis paper presents a design of a compact antenna applicator for a microwave colonoscopy system. Although colonoscopy is the most effective method for colorectal cancer detection, it suffers from important visualization ... -
Dielectric properties of colon polyps, cancer, and normal mucosa: Ex vivo measurements from 0.5 to 20 GHz
Guardiola, Marta; Buitrago Ventura, Santiago; Fernández-Esparrach, Glòria; O'Callaghan Castellà, Juan Manuel; Romeu Robert, Jordi; Cuatrecasas, Miriam; Córdoba, Henry; González Ballester, Miguel A.; Camara, Oscar (2018-06-15)
Article
Open AccessColorectal cancer is highly preventable by detecting and removing polyps, which are the precursors. 20 Currently, the most accurate test is colonoscopy, but still misses 22% of polyps due to visualization limitations. In ... -
Muscular tension significantly affects stability in standing posture
Tassani, Simone; Font Llagunes, Josep Maria; González Ballester, Miguel A.; Noailly, Jérôme (2019-02-01)
Article
Open AccessMuscular co-contraction is a strategy commonly used by elders with the aim to increase stability. However, co-contraction leads to stiffness which in turns reduces stability. Some literature seems to suggest an opposite ...
