In Vivo Quantification of Regional Circumferential Green Strain in the Thoracic and Abdominal Aorta by Two-Dimensional Spiral Cine DENSE MRI
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Regional tissue mechanics play a fundamental role in the patient-specific function and remodeling of the cardiovascular system. Nevertheless, regional in vivo assessments of aortic kinematics remain lacking due to the ...
A New Method for Quantifying Abdominal Aortic Wall Shear Stress Using Phase Contrast Magnetic Resonance Imaging and the Womersley Solution
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Wall shear stress (WSS) is an important mediator of cardiovascular pathologies and there is a need for its reliable evaluation as a potential prognostic indicator. The purpose of this work was to develop a method that ...
Nonuniform Moving Boundary Method for Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulation of Intrathecal Cerebrospinal Flow Distribution in a Cynomolgus Monkey
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A detailed quantification and understanding of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) dynamics may improve detection and treatment of central nervous system (CNS) diseases and help optimize CSF system-based delivery of CNS therapeutics. ...
Cerebrospinal Fluid Flow Impedance is Elevated in Type I Chiari Malformation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Diagnosis of Type I Chiari malformation (CMI) is difficult because the most commonly used diagnostic criterion, cerebellar tonsillar herniation (CTH) greater than 3–5 mm past the foramen magnum, has been found to have ...
