RuOx is recognized as a faradic charge-injection coating with high CSCc, long-term pulsing stability, and low impedance. We examined how the structural properties of sputter-deposited RuOx influence its electrochemical performance as an electrode coating for neural stimulation and recording. Thin film RuOx was deposited under various pressures: 5 mTorr, 15 mTorr, 30 mTorr, and 60 mTorr on wafer-based planar test structures. Electrochemical characterizations, including electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and voltage transient (VT), were employed. The structure of RuOx films was characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM). Our findings revealed that the sputtering pressure significantly influences the growth of the RuOx film, subsequently affecting its electrochemical performance. The results indicate that the electrochemical performance of RuOx can be optimized by adjusting the deposition conditions to achieve a favorable balance between electronic and ionic conductivity.Clinical Relevance- This research underscores the potential for optimizing the structural properties of RuOx to enhance its electrochemical capabilities for neural stimulation and recording.","PeriodicalId":72237,"journal":{"name":"Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society.

Patients with sarcopenia usually have gait disorders and a higher risk of falls. At present, muscle activation of lower limb during walking in patients with sarcopenia is not clear, making it difficult to find effective rehabilitation training. In this study, we aim to investigate muscle activation of lower limb during walking in elderly individuals with sarcopenia. We collected surface EMG signals from the tibialis anterior (TA), lateral gastrocnemius (GL), rectus femoris (RF), and biceps femoris (BF) muscles during walking. Results showed that differences of muscle activation between sarcopenia patients and healthy elderly during walking are mainly reflected in the shank. Specially, RMS of TA was statistically significantly higher in sarcopenia patients during swing phase (p=0.005). Modulation index of GL was significantly higher in sarcopenia patients during pre-swing phase (p=0.01). Coactivation index of TA-GL was significantly lower in sarcopenia patients during single stance phase. A significant strong correlation was also observed between RMS of GL and step length (r=0.863, p=0.012) in sarcopenia patients. These results indicated that differences of muscle activation in shank may contribute to gait disorders in sarcopenia patients. It is recommended that exercise intervention strategies for sarcopenia patients should focus on shank muscles.","PeriodicalId":72237,"journal":{"name":"Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can illuminate gross anatomy and pathology without the need for dissection. However, post-mortem tissues suffer from relatively poor signal contrast and increased vascular porosity compared to living tissues. While clinical contrast agents enhance antemortem imaging, few have been optimized for post-mortem magnetic resonance (PMMR) imaging. Here, we systematically evaluated several simple and effective solutions as post-mortem fiducial markers and intravascular injection contrast agents. They demonstrated gadolinium concentration-dependent hyperintensity in several MRI sequences applied to gel phantoms and cadavers. The addition of gelatin increased hyperintensity and prevented vascular leakage. Ultimately, fiducial markers and post-mortem intravascular contrast provide validation for newly seen anatomy on high-resolution PMMR which can inform clinical practice.","PeriodicalId":72237,"journal":{"name":"Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society.

However, the contrast variation across diffusion-weighted images complicates direct registration. To surmount this challenge, our study introduces a translation-based registration approach, utilizing 312 DTI datasets from the Human Connectome Project (HCP), including both b=0 and b=2000 volumes. We employed an advanced 3D Self-Attention Conditional Generative Adversarial Network (SC-GAN) for the synthesis of imaging data. This method allowed for the generation of synthesized b=2000 volumes, enhancing the distortion-correction process by facilitating efficient registration of distorted images. The results showed the translation network's effectiveness in synthesizing b=2000 volumes from real data, with these volumes serving as stable registration targets, particularly in limited directional data scenarios. The approach also effectively corrected eddy current and motion artifacts, aligning FA and FOD maps with gold standard results from FSL's eddy method, confirming the translation-based registration's efficacy in addressing cross-contrast registration challenges in DTI preprocessing.","PeriodicalId":72237,"journal":{"name":"Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society.

A reliable fingerprint recognition system can be a practical solution to address this issue. However, the scarcity of longitudinal fingerprint datasets for young children leads to unresolved questions regarding the earliest age for fingerprint biometric use, the frequency of enrollment required for reliable recognition, and the methods to accommodate age-related changes. A few recent studies introduced high-resolution fingerprint scanners and showed promising recognition performance for young children. However, these studies were conducted on a small dataset over a shorter period with limited diversity; further evaluation of their finding is essential. This study assessed the effectiveness of a high-resolution contactless scanner in a controlled, diverse longitudinal dataset of children (0-15 years). Our results indicate that infants can be enrolled at five days old and reliably recognized after two months with a TAR= 100% @ FAR = 0.1%, and children aged 4-15 years can be recognized after one year with a TAR= 98.72% @ FAR = 0.1%.","PeriodicalId":72237,"journal":{"name":"Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society.

We developed a multidirectional VF belt to provide feedback to the user on trunk inclination to correct the center of pressure (CoP) sway. CoP data were measured with a force plate, and user experience was collected through assessed questionnaires. Our findings suggest that VF contributes to a rapid return of the CoP to the Base of Support (BoS) during weight lifting(WL). However, VF may pose challenges during open-eyed conditions or with the addition of a compliant platform, potentially overwhelming users with proprioceptive stimuli and requiring increased attention. Although VF aids in postural correction near the support base and its periphery, individual factors such as user attention and sensitivity influence VF perception. Further studies with larger sample sizes are needed to validate these findings and explore the efficacy of VF in diverse postural control scenarios.","PeriodicalId":72237,"journal":{"name":"Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society.

Our study involved augmenting MscL-G22S channel expression in specific areas of rats' hippocampus (HP) and primary visual cortex (V1) via AAV virus delivery. We recorded local field potentials (LFPs) to assess the modulation effect and identified distinct evoked-related potentials (ERPs) in regions overexpressing MscL-G22S channels under anesthesia. Notable variations in the amplitude of negative peaks were observed in the ERPs between HP and V1, highlighting a nuanced response to ultrasound stimulation. These results highlight the complexity and promise of MS channel-mediated neuromodulation, offering critical insights into the development of targeted ultrasound interventions to improve brain function.","PeriodicalId":72237,"journal":{"name":"Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society.
