Surg Endosc
. 2005 Dec;
20(2):311-5.
PMID: 16362482
Background: Previously, we have described novel, thermally deployable tissue fixators based on the shape-memory properties of nickel titanium. The present study reports on the in vivo wound closure with these...

Proc Inst Mech Eng H
. 2005 Jun;
219(3):213-7.
PMID: 15934397
A medical needle is described that allows injection to take place at multiple sites through a single stab wound. This is achieved by extruding multiple, thin, and curved internal needles...

Surg Endosc
. 2005 Jun;
18(11):1605-7.
PMID: 15931481
Background: Surgical needles are usually held using dedicated grasping instruments. When the tissue to be penetrated is resilient, or the grasping force is low, the needle can swivel, causing it...

Surg Endosc
. 2004 Dec;
19(3):366-8.
PMID: 15624067

Surg Endosc
. 2004 May;
18(8):1192-5.
PMID: 15164276
Background: The term "gold standard" is often used to describe preferred display devices, frequently without substantiating evidence. A meaningful and objective measure of display quality for endoscopic surgery is required....

Surg Endosc
. 2003 Jul;
17(10):1640-5.
PMID: 12874690
Background: Energized dissection systems facilitate laparoscopic dissection and hemostasis and reduce instrument traffic. However, they can introduce undesirable thermal collateral/proximity damage to adjacent structures mainly by heat conduction, although other...
