Traditionally, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of flow using phase contrast (PC) methods
is accomplished using methods that resolve single‐directional flow in two spatial …

Atherosclerotic plaques are found at distinct locations in the arterial system, despite the
exposure to systemic risk factors of the entire vascular tree. From the study of arterial …

Atherosclerosis is the main cause of morbidity and mortality in the Western world.
Inflammation and blood flow alterations are new markers emerging as possible …

Abstract Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) are
currently widely applied in the study of blood flow parameters and their alterations under …

The objective of our session at the 2008 International Bio-Fluid Symposium and Workshop
was to review the state-of-the-art in image-based modeling of blood flow, and identify future …

There is well-documented evidence that vascular geometry has a major impact in blood flow
dynamics and consequently in the development of vascular diseases, like atherosclerosis …

Here we analyse the influence of assumptions made on boundary conditions (BCs)
extracted from phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (PC-MRI) in vivo measured flow …

Atherosclerosis and intracranial saccular aneurysms predictably localize in areas with
complex arterial geometries such as bifurcations and curvatures. These sites are …

Intraluminal thrombus (ILT) is present in over 75% of all abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs)
and probably contributes to the complex biomechanics and pathobiology of these lesions. A …

A variety of hemodynamic wall parameters (HWP) has been proposed over the years to
quantify hemodynamic disturbances as potential predictors or indicators of vascular wall …
