Analysis of intracardiac flows has gained increasing interest in the last years. This analysis
has become possible due to the development of technologies for noninvasive …

The potential relevance of blood flow for describing cardiac function has been known for the
past 2 decades, but the association of clinical parameters with the complexity of fluid motion …

Left bundle branch block (LBBB) results in an altered pattern of left ventricular (LV) activation
and subsequent contraction, causing remarkable changes in LV mechanics, perfusion and …

Intraventricular pressure gradients or hemodynamic forces, which are their global measure
integrated over the left ventricular volume, have a fundamental importance in ventricular …

Intracardiac blood flow is driven by hemodynamic forces that are exchanged between the
blood and myocardium. Previous studies have been limited to 2D measurements or …

Hemodynamic force analysis has been proposed as a novel tool for early detection of
subclinical systolic dysfunction in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) …

Various forms of vortex formation in the cardiovascular system convey valuable information
regarding the function of heart and great vessels. The vortex ring that forms during systole in …

Left bundle branch block (LBBB) causes left ventricular (LV) dyssynchrony which is often
associated with heart failure. A significant proportion of heart failure patients do not …

Aims Altered left ventricular (LV) haemodynamic forces (HDFs) have been associated with
positive and negative remodelling after pathogenic or therapeutic events. We aimed to …

The hemodynamic forces exchanged between the blood flowing in the heart and the
myocardium are recently receiving attention as an important marker of cardiac function. The …
