Atherosclerosis is one of the principle pathologies of cardiovascular disease with blood cholesterol a significant risk factor. The World Health Organisation estimates that approximately 2.5 million deaths occur annually due to the risk…

Feature tracking Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) has recently emerged as an area of interest for quantification of regional cardiac function from balanced, steady state free precession (SSFP) cine sequences. However, currently available…

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations play an important role in engineering science and applications, however, it is not applicable for problems requiring a large number of repeated calculations. Accordingly, many reduced-order…

Objectives: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common heart rhythm disorder associated with deadly and debilitating consequences including heart failure, stroke, poor mental health, reduced quality of life and death. Having an automatic system…

Cardiovascular disease remains a significant problem in modern society. Among non-invasive techniques, the electrocardiogram (ECG) is one of the most reliable methods for detecting abnormalities in cardiac activities. However, ECG…

As the global population ages, the incidence of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is rising. CKD often remains asymptomatic until advanced stages, which significantly burdens both the healthcare system and patient quality of life. This research…

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models of blood flow in the left ventricle (LV) and aorta are important tools for analyzing the mechanistic links between myocardial deformation and flow patterns. Typically, the use of image-based…

We consider an optimal flow control problem in a patient-specific coronary artery bypass graft with the aim of matching the blood flow velocity with given measurements as the Reynolds number varies in a physiological range. Blood flow is…

Coronary anatomy governs local haemodynamics associated with atherosclerotic development, progression and ultimately adverse clinical outcomes. However, lack of large sample size studies and methods to link adverse haemodynamics to…

Objective. Heart failure is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, with millions of deaths each year, according to data from the World Health Organization (WHO) and other public health agencies. While significant progress has been…

Cardiovascular diseases, particularly heart failure, are a leading cause of death globally. The early detection of heart failure through routine echocardiogram screenings is often impeded by the high cost and labor-intensive nature of these…

Coronary X-ray angiography is a crucial clinical procedure for the diagnosis and treatment of coronary artery disease, which accounts for roughly 16% of global deaths every year. However, the images acquired in these procedures have low…

Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common birth defect and the leading cause of neonate death in China. Clinical diagnosis can be based on the selected 2D key-frames from five views. Limited by the availability of multi-view data,…

Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) results from plaque deposit in a coronary artery. Early diagnosis is imperative, so a non-invasive detection method is being developed to identify acoustic signals caused by partial occlusions in the artery.…

Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) is a syndrome caused by a decrease in blood flow in the coronary arteries. The ACS is usually related to coronary thrombosis and is primarily caused by plaque rupture followed by plaque erosion and calcified…

This study investigates the effects of geometric model reduction on blood flow simulations in the patient-specific descending aorta, followed by speed-accuracy trade-off analysis using 3D simulations. We demonstrate how wall shear stresses…

Changes in cardiovascular hemodynamics are closely related to the development of aortic regurgitation, a type of valvular heart disease. Metrics derived from blood flows are used to indicate aortic regurgitation onset and evaluate its…

Cardiovascular Diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death worldwide, taking 17.9 million lives annually. Abdominal Aortic Calcification (AAC) is an established marker for CVD, which can be observed in lateral view Vertebral Fracture…

Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a severe cardiac disease, and hence, its early diagnosis is essential as it improves treatment results and saves money on medical care. The prevailing development of quantum computing and machine learning…

Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the leading cause of death globally. Non-invasive, cost-effective imaging techniques play a crucial role in early detection and prevention of CVD. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has gained recognition…
