Optimal Temperature Protocols for Liver Machine Perfusion Using a Monte Carlo Method
1University of Rhode Island, Kingston, RI 02881-2019 USA.
Abstract:
Monte Carlo simulation with a novel acceptance procedure is used to find optimal temperature profiles for liver machine perfusion. Numerical results for MC simulation are compared to a greedy approach and to current practice in machine perfusion research. Results show that the proposed Monte Carlo simulation approach finds optimal temperature profiles that agree with current clinical research practice.
