| Abstract | Temperature monitoring in tissue undergoing Laser Ablation (LA) is particularly beneficial to optimize therapy outcomes. During last decades several approaches have been proposed to perform thermometry during thermal ablation. Among others, Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors show valuable characteristics for such measurement, but their sensitivity to strain entails measurement error for patient respiratory movements. In this work two needle-like probes were developed using two different procedures to encapsulate an FBG into a surgical needle, aiming to allow safe insertion into the patient tissue and to neglect mechanical disturbance due to tissue movements occurring during breathing. The static calibration of the two probes has been carried out in a wide range of temperature (i.e., from 18 °C up to 100 °C), and their response time has been estimated. The calibration curves of the two probes show good linearity and a different sensitivity, and their response time is fast enough to meet the criteria set for temperature monitoring during LA. Since the metallic needle entails a measurement error, called artifact, due to the direct absorption of the laser radiation, the two abovementioned probes have been employed during LA on ex vivo liver. Then, their measurements have been compared to the measurement provided by an FBG without needle, which does not experience artifacts. The good results in terms of both static and dynamic properties of the two probes encourage to perform further analysis regarding the amplitude of the artifacts due to the direct absorption of the metallic needle and regarding the capability of the probes to neglect mechanical disturbance. |

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.
