Opis

Cancer and coronary artery obstruction (CAO) are the two most leading causes of death worldwide. This work utilizes civil engineering principles like natural frequency and elasticity to collapse the cancer cell sparing the healthy ones and the structural integrity, modal analysis was done to estimate the natural frequencies of normal, cancer cells and cardiovascular stents using ANSYS software. By exploiting the natural frequencies of the cells and stents, the burdens associated with chemotherapy may be surpassed by targeting the cancer cells specifically and the medical product designers for designing new stents with better structural integrity before stent insertion, substituting in vivo experiment that is difficult and unpractical, may use this work.
