    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Théo Cyril Arvid Monpouet Ekeram; Ellen Mattsson; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Since various kinds of cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death today, it is of great importance to further our understanding of not only the diseases themselves, but also different treatments. One of the emerging tools is computational fluid dynamics. READ MORE

  3. 2. Semi-Automatic Analysis and Visualization of Cardiac 4D Flow CT

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för hälsa, medicin och vård

    Author : Anthony van Oosten; [2022]
    Keywords : 4D CT; CT; 4D flow; Flow Component Analysis; Singular value decomposition; left atrial appendage; LAA; CFD; 3 chamber view; computed tomography; maximum outflow velocity; volume rendered CT; semi-automatic; visualization; flow visualization; cardiac views; semi-automatic analysis; semi-automatic visualization; visualization of 4D flow;

    Abstract : The data obtained from computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations of blood flow in the heart is plentiful, and processing this data takes time and the procedure for that is not straightforward. This project aims to develop a tool that can semi-automatically process CFD simulation data, which is based on 4D flow computed tomography (CT) data, with minimal user input. READ MORE

    Abstract : Today there exists two types of preventive surgical treatment procedures for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm. In order to make an informed choice of treatment, the clinician needs to have a clear picture of how the choice will affect the patients chances of survival. READ MORE

  5. 4. Modelling development of ECMO return flow in bifurcating arteries

    University essay from KTH/Strömningsmekanik och Teknisk Akustik

    Author : Friederike Schäfer; [2021]
    Keywords : Fluid Mechanics; CFD; ECMO;

    Abstract : Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-A ECMO) is a life saving therapy for critically ill patients experiencing a heart and lung failure. During this therapy, a common complication is limb ischemia in the leg where the return cannula reintroduces the oxygenated blood to the patient. READ MORE

  6. 5. The Identification of Collagen Failure in Vascular Tissue

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Kathryn Dennisson; Nicole Namousi; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Aortic diseases are a common and fatal health issue, regarding various conditions targeting the aorta. The arterial wall consists of two proteins; collagen and elastin (fibers), and they will contribute to the elasticity and strength of the wall. READ MORE
