A One Dimensional (1D) Computational Fluid Dynamics Study of Fontan-Associated Liver Disease (FALD)
Yaqi Li, Justin D. Weigand, Charles Puelz +2
Fontan-Associated Liver Disease (FALD) is a disorder arising from hemodynamic changes and venous congestion in the liver. This disease is prominent in patients with hypoplastic lef…
Deformable Registration of MRA and 4D Flow Images to Facilitate Accurate Estimation of Flow Properties within Blood Vessels
Dan Lior, Craig G. Rusin, Justin Weigand +5
A method is presented for the registration of MRA and 4D Flow images, with the goal of calculating blood flow properties using both modalities simultaneously. In particular, the me…
Parameter selection and optimization of a computational network model of blood flow in single-ventricle patients
Alyssa M. Taylor-LaPole, L. Mihaela Paun, Dan Lior +3
Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) is a congenital heart disease responsible for 23% of infant cardiac deaths each year. HLHS patients are born with an underdeveloped left hear…
Computational framework for the generation of one-dimensional vascular models accounting for uncertainty in networks extracted from medical images
Michelle A Bartolo, Alyssa M Taylor-LaPole, Darsh Gandhi +9
Patient-specific computational modeling is a popular, non-invasive method to answer medical questions. Medical images are used to extract geometric domains necessary to create thes…
Fluid-structure interaction simulations for the prediction of fractional flow reserve in pediatric patients with anomalous aortic origin of a coronary artery
Charles Puelz, Craig G. Rusin, Dan Lior +5
Computer simulations of blood flow in patients with anomalous aortic origin of a coronary artery (AAOCA) have the promise to provide insight into this complex disease. They provide…
