Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis and Algorithmic Generation of Hepatic Vascular Systems
TL;DR: A quantification of similarity in terms of different geometric features is developed, which involves topological Strahler ordering of the vascular trees, statistical testing, and averaging, and is applied to generate realistic additional details in a patient-specific hepatic vascular tree data set.

Estimation of coronary artery hyperemic blood flow based on arterial lumen volume using angiographic images.
TL;DR: Results indicate that measured arterial branch lengths or lumen volumes can potentially be used to predict the expected hyperemic flow in an arterial tree and could be use to predict fractional flow reserve based entirely on angiographic data.

TL;DR: The different design aspects to create a microfluidic chip for spatial 3D-LC are discussed, the use of physical barriers to confine the flow between the individual developments, and flow control by theuse of (2)D and (3)D flow distributors is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Numerical studies on different two-dimensional micromixers basing on a fractal-like tree network
TL;DR: Effect of geometry parameters on mixing efficiency and pressure drop was analyzed and the best bifurcation angle was obtained for Y-type micromixers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tissue Engineering the Vascular Tree.
TL;DR: The different technologies and methods that have been employed in an effort to create individual vessels and networks of vessels to support engineered tissues for in vivo and in vitro applications are described and a special focus is placed on the generation of blood vessels with average dimensions that span from microns to a millimeter.
