Radiofrequency Ablation for Treatment of Osteoid Osteoma Tumors
(2004-11-12)This project analyzes the different parameters involved in the use of radiofrequency ablation in destruction of osteoid osteoma tumors. Osteoid osteomas occur most frequently in the long tubular bones, especially those in ... -
Radiofrequency Ablation to kill Kidney Tumors
(2003-07-12)Radiofrequency ablation is a technique to destroy tissue cells by heating them above 460C. This method is specifically used in treating tumors smaller than 5 cm in diameter by placing the heated probe within the dysfunctional ... -
Reflections on an Academic and Commercial Career
(Internet-First University Press, 2014-12)William Jewell, Professor Emeritus in Biological and Environmental Engineering at Cornell University, traces the arc of his professorial career as a teacher and researcher. His early interests in environmental issues, ... -
Renal Tissue Preservation: Cooling the human kidney for optimal transport conditions
(1999-01-10)End Stage Renal Disease affects over 80,000 Americans each year. While there is no known cure, kidney transplants are the most effective way to combat the disease while bettering the quality of life for the patient. In ... -
Research Experience for Undergraduates: Cornell University Biological and Environmental Engineering
(Internet-First University Press, 2008-02)On August 3, 2005, a Seminar was held at Cornell University to present Undergraduate Research in the field of Biological and Environmental Engineering. These were collected into a DVD produced by Internet-First University ... -
Rice Panicle Topology Toolbox for Matlab (R)
(Cornell University, 2006-05)The Rice Panicle Topology Toolbox for Matlab(R) was developed to support the analysis of panicle topology and ripening. You can encode, represent and evaluate topologically variable grain traits in a panicle using arrays ... -
Riley-Robb Hall at Cornell University: Celebrating It's Opening
(Internet-First University Press, 2007-06-28)In the fall of 1953, 46 years after the Department of Biological and Environmental Engineering at Cornell was founded (in 1907) as Division of Rural Engineering and Architecture, ground was broken for what would become ... -
The Risks of LASIK Corrective Eye Surgery: A Mass Transfer Approach to a Universal Concern
(2004-06-17)The laser vision correction procedure, LASIK, requires a thin flap of the cornea to be created by a microkeratome knife. The focus of this project was to study and quantify the moisture loss from the tiny corneal flap ... -
