Journal ArticleDOI

What is needed to make low-density lipoprotein transport in human aorta computational models suitable to explore links to atherosclerosis? Impact of initial and inflow boundary conditions.

TL;DR: The imposition of realistic 3D velocity profiles as inflow BC reduces the uncertainty affecting the representation of LDL transfer and suggests to carefully set and unambiguously declare the imposed BCs and LDL concentration IC when modelling LDL transfer in aorta to obtain reproducible and ultimately comparable results among different laboratories.
Book ChapterDOI

A Survey of Quantitative Descriptors of Arterial Flows

TL;DR: In this work, a survey of the currently adopted methods to characterize blood flow structures in arteries is presented and open questions on their clinical utility and on the inherent limitations in their in silico and in vivo application are discussed.
Proceedings Article

Mitral valve patient-specific finite element modeling from 3-D real time echocardiography: a potential new tool for surgical planning

TL;DR: This work integrated into a MV FEM the patient-specific information about leaflets, annulus and papillary muscles geometry and dynamics, obtained from real-time 3D echocardiography, into a finite element model, and reported results consistent with experimental findings from literature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mapping aortic hemodynamics using 3D cine phase contrast magnetic resonance parallel imaging: Evaluation of an anisotropic diffusion filter

TL;DR: An anisotropic diffusion filter is proposed and evaluated to improve visualization and analysis of the thoracic aorta local hemodynamics from phase‐contrast MRI sensitivity encoding imaging.
