Heart failure is diverse in its manifestations and patho-physiology with changes in chamber
size and volume, wall motion, valvular competence, intracardiac pressures, and electrical …

Hintergrund Der Blutfluss durch das Herz und die großen Gefäße erfolgt pulsatil und
unterliegt zeitlichen wie auch multidirektionalen Schwankungen. Bisher ist die Erfassung …

Background Computational modeling of cardiovascular flow is a growing and useful field,
but such simulations usually require the researcher to guess the flow's inlet and outlet …

Introduction Phase contrast MRI allows for the examination of complex hemodynamics in the
heart and adjacent great vessels. Vortex flow patterns seem to play an important role in …

Objectives To comprehensively and quantitatively analyse flow and vorticity in the right heart
of patients after repair of tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF) compared with healthy volunteers …

This book discusses geometric and mathematical models that can be used to study fluid and
structural mechanics in the cardiovascular system. Where traditional research …

Intraventricular flow is important in understanding left ventricular function; however, relevant
numerical simulations are limited, especially when heart valve function is taken into account …

Objective In cardiac medical imaging, the extraction and segmentation of the part of interest
is the key to the diagnosis of heart disease. Due to irregular diastole and contraction …

Background Although accurate modeling of the thermal performance of irrigated-tip
electrodes in radiofrequency cardiac ablation requires the solution of a triple coupled …

Most of the cardiac abnormalities have an implication on hemodynamics and affect
cardiovascular health. Diagnostic imaging modalities such as computed tomography and …
