One of the relevant phenomenon associated with in-stent restenosis in coronary arteries is an altered haemodynamics in the stented region. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) offers …
Introduction The increased survival rate of patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) has made it likely that 70%–95% of infants with CHDs surviving into adulthood often require …
Arterial hemodynamics is markedly characterized by the presence of helical flow patterns. Previous observations suggest that arterial helical blood flow is of physiological significance …
In this study, a Fluid Solid Interaction analysis (FSI) of a computerized tomography (CT) scan reconstructed left coronary artery was performed. The arterial wall was modeled as an …

Local hemodynamics has been identified as one main determinant in the onset and progression of atherosclerotic lesions at coronary bifurcations. Starting from the observation …
Hemodynamic parameters have been identified as a significant determinant in the development and progression of plaque, which leads to coronary artery disease (CAD). This …
Although stenting is the most commonly performed procedure for the treatment of coronary atherosclerotic lesions, in-stent restenosis (ISR) remains one of the most serious clinical …

Pulse wave evaluation is an effective method for arteriosclerosis screening. In a previous study, we verified that pulse waveforms change markedly due to arterial stiffness. However …
Patient-specific computational fluid dynamics is a powerful tool for investigating the hemodynamic risk in coronary arteries. Proper setting of flow boundary conditions in …
