The influence of viscosity ratio, Reynolds number, and Froude number on the instability of the system are discussed and a new phenomenon never discussed is investigated based on our numerical results. It is shown that viscosity can enlarge the unstable wave number range, cause new instability modes, and certainly reduce the growth rate of Kelvin-Helmholtz (K-H) instability.展开更多

Accurate imaging evaluation of the transplanted patient is critical for ensuring that the limited donor liver is functioning appropriately. Ultrasound contrast agents(UCAs), in combination with contrastspecific imaging techniques, are increasingly accepted in clinical use for the assessment of the hepatic vasculature, bile ducts and liver parenchyma in pre-, intra- and posttransplant patients. We describe UCAs, their technical requirements, the recommended clinical indications, image interpretation and the limitations for contrastenhanced ultrasound applications in liver transplantation.展开更多
