Abstract Introduction Mock circulatory loops (MCLs) are mechanical representations of the
cardiovascular system largely used to test the hemodynamic performance of cardiovascular …

Computational hemodynamics has become increasingly important within the context of
precision medicine, providing major insight in cardiovascular pathologies. However, finding …

Abstract Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) is the most common congenital heart disease. In this work,
hemodynamics of pulmonary arteries (PA) in ToF patients was investigated using patient …

Numerical simulations to evaluate thoracic aortic hemodynamics include a computational
fluid dynamic (CFD) approach or fluid-structure interaction (FSI) approach. While CFD …

The Modified Blalock Taussig Shunt (MBTS) is one of the most common palliative operations
in case of cyanotic heart diseases. Thus far, the decision on the position, size, and geometry …

Introduction: Patient-specific computational models are a powerful tool for planning
cardiovascular interventions. However, the in vivo patient-specific mechanical properties of …

Background Cardiovascular diseases remain a leading cause of morbidity and mortality
worldwide and require extensive investigation through in-vitro studies. Mock Circulatory …

Background and objective Phase contrast magnetic resonance imaging (4D flow MRI) is an
imaging technique able to provide blood velocity in vivo and morphological information. This …

The analysis of mechanobiology of arterial tissues remains an important topic of research for
cardiovascular pathologies evaluation. In the current state of the art, the gold standard to …

Purpose This study aims to develop a realistic 3D printing-based simulator for the training
and planning of the left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) to be used in the cath lab …
