  1. Phantom Simulation of Liver Motion During Breathing Group Members: Ian Dallmeyer Tuta Guerra Ian Henderlong Advisor: Dr. Bob Galloway

  2. Background • Over 17,550 people in the U.S. diagnosed with primary liver cancer in 2005. 15,420 will die of liver cancer in 2005. • Cancers often spread throughout the liver. • Traditional surgery difficult/not possible. • No IGS techniques for the abdomen. • Respiratory motion • Most IGS techniques limited to brain, spine, and ENT

  3. Problem • Need an anatomically correct model which accurately simulates liver motion due to breathing to test IGLS techniques.

  4. Advantages of Phantom Model • Porcine Liver • Approx. $1,000 – $2,000 per liver • Not anatomically correct • Not reusable • Phantom model • Anatomically correct • Reusable • Time and space-saving • Cost effective

  5. Market Potential • Current methods too invasive • Open liver resection • Low survival rate • Long recovery periods • Estimated market for IGLS 10x current IGNS market • IGLS: $3.0-$7.5 billion • International Market

  6. Alternatives to Modeling Liver Motion • High-Frequency Jet Ventilation • Disadvantages • Maximum Duration of 45 min. • Cardiovascular Complications • Patient Response • Expensive

  7. Phantom Liver System Design Top View Side View Muscle Wire Muscle Wire

  8. Shape Memory Alloy • Shape memory alloys deform upon heating • Martensite – low T, soft, deformable • Austenite – higher T, hard, non-deformable • Other SMA’s - CuZnAl, and CuAlNi

  9. Muscle Wire Specs • Alloy: nitinol • R 50 /m • Activation T 70oC • Diameter = 150mm • Act. Current = 400 mA • Vact =~ 10V • Cooling time = 2 s

  10. Design Specs • 1-D Linear motion (cranial- caudal) • 10.8 + 2.5 mm (ATLM) • Breath Frequency ~= .11 Hz. (1 breath/9 sec)

  11. Current Work • Testing of Muscle Wire • Developing a power source • Construction of track system

  12. Future Work • Construction of PVC housing • Research for final paper/poster • Total model assembly
