Correction: Temperature Dependence of Thermal Properties of Ex Vivo Porcine Heart and Lung in Hyperthermia and Ablative Temperature Ranges

Correction: Annals of Biomedical Engineering 10.1007/s10439-022-03122-9

In the original article, the paragraphs between Eqs. (6) and (7) erroneously refer to s as the standard deviation. The corrected paragraphs should read as follows:

$$y_{\mathit{Ts}}=\overline{y_{\mathit{Ts}}}\pm U=\overline{y_{\mathit{Ts}}}\pm k_f·s$$ 6

where y_Ts indicates the single property, $\overline{y_{\mathit{Ts}}}$ is the arithmetic mean, U indicates the uncertainty calculated as the product between the coverage factor k_f and s.

The value k_f was obtained from the Student’s t-distribution with a level of confidence of 95%: in our case, the number of measurements is n = 3, since each experimental trial was repeated three times for each tissue type, consequently there are two degrees of freedom, hence the kf corresponds to a value of 4.30 for both the tissues. Here, s is obtained from the following formula:

$$s=\sqrt{\frac{{{\sum }_{i=1}^n\left(y_{Ts,i},-,\overline{y_{\mathit{Ts}}}\right)}^2}{n\left(n,-,1\right)}}$$ 7
