Cardiac disease and clinical intervention may both lead to an increased risk for thrombosis events due to modified blood flow in the heart, and thereby a change in the mechanical stimuli of blood cells passing through the chambers of the…
In this study, we present a comprehensive numerical analysis of blood flow within human left ventricle models, with particular emphasis on optimizing simulation conditions to enhance the realism and computational efficiency of heart flow…
This brief article accompanies a fluid dynamics video presenting the results of a large-eddy simulation of the flow in a realistic left heart. The left heart geometry, from the pulmonary veins to the aortic root, is extracted from medical…
We consider the fully-developed flow of an incompressible Newtonian fluid in a cylindrical vessel with elliptical cross-section (both an ellipse and the annulus between two confocal ellipses). In particular, we address an inverse problem,…
The analysis of plaque deposits in the coronary vasculature is an important topic in current clinical research. From a technical side mostly new algorithms for different sub tasks - e.g. centerline extraction or vessel/plaque segmentation -…
Image-based computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has emerged as a powerful tool to study cardiovascular flows while 2D echocardiography (echo) is the most widely used non-invasive imaging modality for diagnosis of heart disease. Here, echo is…
We are interested in a reduced order method for the efficient simulation of blood flow in arteries. The blood dynamics is modeled by means of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Our algorithm is based on an approximated…
Objective: Exploit accelerometry data for an automatic, reliable, and prompt detection of spontaneous circulation during cardiac arrest, as this is both vital for patient survival and practically challenging. Methods: We developed a machine…
A new two-dimensional model for blood flows in arteries with arbitrary cross sections is derived. The model consists of a system of balance laws for conservation of mass and balance of momentum in the axial and angular directions. The…
In the framework of accurate and efficient segregated schemes for 3D cardiac electromechanics and 0D cardiovascular models, we propose here a novel numerical approach to address the coupled 3D-0D problem introduced in Part I of this…
Cerebral blood flow and perfusion can be estimated using tracer dilution experiments. Accurate estimation of blood flow parameters is a crucial part of medical imaging for effective diagnosis and treatment. This study explores two themes:…
Cardiac computed tomography (CT) has emerged as a major imaging modality for the diagnosis and monitoring of cardiovascular diseases. High temporal resolution is essential to ensure diagnostic accuracy. Limited-angle data acquisition can…
The purpose of this study is to present a new semi-automated methodology for three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of coronary arteries and their plaque morphology using Computed Tomography Angiography (CTA) images. The methodology is…
Segmentation of the coronary artery is an important task for the quantitative analysis of coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) images and is being stimulated by the field of deep learning. However, the complex structures with…
Patient-specific modeling of cardiovascular flows with high-fidelity is challenging due to its dependence on accurately estimated velocity boundary profiles, which are essential for precise simulations and directly influence wall shear…
Cardiac CT is often used clinically in electrophysiology to evaluate cardiac morphology. One such case is to evaluate patients with Atrial Fibrillation (AF). AF can cause regions of slow blood flow and blood stasis through the left atrial…
Analysing the haemodynamics of flow in carotid artery disease serves as a means to better understand the development and progression of associated complex diseases. Carotid artery disease can predispose people to major adverse…
The circulatory system, comprising the heart and blood vessels, is vital for nutrient transport, waste removal, and homeostasis. Traditional computational models often treat cardiac electromechanics and blood flow dynamics separately,…
A clinically actionable Cardiac Digital Twin (CDT) should reconstruct individualised cardiac anatomy and physiology, update its internal state from multimodal signals, and enable a broad range of downstream simulations beyond isolated…
Image-based, patient-specific modelling of hemodynamics can improve diagnostic capabilities and provide complementary insights to better understand the hemodynamic treatment outcomes. However, computational fluid dynamics simulations remain…
