Aortic dissection continues to be responsible for significant morbidity and mortality, although
recent advances in medical data assimilation and in experimental and in silico models have …

Objective: ascending aortic aneurysm growth prediction is still challenging in clinics. In this
study, we evaluate and compare the ability of local and global shape features to predict the …

Background Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has dramatically expanded
treatment options for patients with thoracic aortic pathology. The interaction between …

Vascular interventional surgery has been become a specialized surgical technique because
it can minimize the trauma and shorten the recovery time, but it needs more accurate …

Background The application of cardiovascular magnetic resonance angiography (CMRA) for
the assessment of thoracic aortic disease is often associated with prolonged and …

Thoracic aortic aneurysm is a common and lethal disease that requires regular imaging
surveillance to determine timing of surgical repair and prevent major complications such as …

Objective Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) can change the morphology of the
flow lumen in aortic dissections, which may affect aortic hemodynamics and function. This …

Objective: To utilize 3-D modeling techniques to better characterize geometric deformations
of the supra-aortic arch branch vessels and descending thoracic aorta after thoracic …

Purpose The thoracic aorta is a highly mobile organ whose dynamics are altered by thoracic
endovascular aorta repair (TEVAR). The aim of this study was to quantify cardiac pulsatility …

Vascular morphology characterization is useful for disease diagnosis, risk stratification,
treatment planning, and prediction of treatment durability. To quantify the dynamic surface …
