This article presents a framework for building patient-specific models of the myocardium, to
help diagnosis, therapy planning, and procedure guidance. The aim is to be able to …

This paper presents a new three-dimensional electromechanical model of the two cardiac
ventricles designed both for the simulation of their electrical and mechanical activity, and for …

In this paper, we present a framework to estimate local ventricular myocardium contractility
using clinical MRI, a heart model and data assimilation. First, we build a generic anatomical …

In very broad terms, the inverse problem of electrocardiography may be defined as the
determination of the electrical function of the heart from a number of remote recordings of …

The usual goal in inverse electrocardiography (ECG) is to reconstruct cardiac electrical
sources from body surface potentials and a mathematical model that relates the sources to …

Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the major cause of morbidity and mortality in the
western world. Within CVD, the increasing prevalence of congestive heart failure (CHF) is …

This article describes an experimental protocol to obtain in vivo macroscopic measures of
the cardiac electrical activity in a canine heart coupled with simulations done using …

This paper presents a new mathematical model of the human heart. Heart is the mother
component of the cardiovascular system that consists of four chambers and it is responsible …

A theoretical fluid mechanical model is proposed for the investigation of myocardial
perfusion in healthy and stenotic conditions. The model hinges on Terzaghi's consolidation …

Cardiovascular physics is an interdisciplinary research area where the ideas and methods
from mathematics, physics, and biology are synergistically applied for advanced medical …
