| Abstract | Developing a means of determining whether or not there is adequate perfusion in a newly transplanted kidney is the impetus for this study. The concept analyzed is that of a self-heating thermistor probe located between the kidney and the adjacent body tissue, inserted during the transplant procedure. When appropriate perfusion is present in the kidney, more heat will be dissipated in the organ tissue than when perfusion is insufficient for transplant success. If the heat dissipation for a given probe temperature above the bulk tissue is monitored, this might be able to be used as an indicator of procedural success or failure. To assess the sensitivity of this approach a numerical model has been developed and is reported here. An axisymmetric two-dimensional finite-difference formulation is used. Results are shown using typical values of properties for perfused and non-perfused tissue. The sensitivity of the approach to these properties indicates the type of accuracy that will be required in the clinical application of the technique. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
