Hemodynamics in the Left Atrium and Its Effect on Ventricular Flow Patterns
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the present study, we investigate the hemodynamics inside left atrium (LA) and understand its impact on the development of ventricular flow patterns. We construct the heart model using dynamiccomputed tomographic images ...
Optimized Time-Resolved Echo Particle Image Velocimetry– Particle Tracking Velocimetry Measurements Elucidate Blood Flow in Patients With Left Ventricular Thrombus
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Contrast ultrasound is a widely used clinical tool to obtain real-time qualitative blood flow assessments in the heart, liver, etc. Echocardiographic particle image velocimetry (echo-PIV) is a technique for obtaining ...
Computational Study of Computed Tomography Contrast Gradients in Models of Stenosed Coronary Arteries
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Recent computed tomography coronary angiography (CCTA) studies have noted higher transluminal contrast agent gradients in arteries with stenotic lesions, but the physical mechanism responsible for these gradients is not ...
