We discuss work-in-progress and propose an ontology driven framework for the development of a clinical expert system for chest pain risk assessment. The framework has the following key components: adaptive questionnaire, patient medical history, risk... Read More about Ontology-driven cardiovascular decision support system.

Metamaterial-based design of biological sensors operating at THz frequencies (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
La Spada, L., Bilotti, F., & Vegni, L. (2011). Metamaterial-based design of biological sensors operating at THz frequencies.

In this contribution, we present an omega-shaped electromagnetic resonator, which is of potential interest for THz biosensors. A new analytical model for such an inclusion-type is developed, considering the effects of the fringing capacitance. After...
