The growing global prevalence of heart failure (HF) necessitates innovative methods for
early diagnosis and classification of myocardial dysfunction. In recent decades, non-invasive …

Understanding the complex interplay between morphologic and hemodynamic features in
aortic dissection is critical for risk stratification and for the development of individualized …

We previously introduced and verified the reduced unified continuum formulation for
vascular fluid–structure interaction (FSI) against Womersley's deformable wall theory. Our …

Aortic wall stiffening is a predictive marker for morbidity in hypertensive patients. Arterial
pulse wave velocity (PWV) correlates with the level of stiffness and can be derived using non …

Abstract Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) is the most common congenital heart disease. In this work,
hemodynamics of pulmonary arteries (PA) in ToF patients was investigated using patient …

Background: Ex vivo computer controlled circulatory reactors are advantageous for the
investigation of circulatory systems. So far, most of the models have dealt with laminar or …

Atherosclerosis represents the etiologic source of several cardiovascular events, including
myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accidents, and peripheral artery disease, which …

Purpose We propose a 3D finite‐element method for the quantification of vorticity and
helicity density from 3D cine phase‐contrast (PC) MRI. Methods By using a 3D finite …

Background To evaluate the feasibility of ak–t accelerated multi-VENC 4D phase contrast
flow MRI acquisition of the main heart-surrounding vessels, its benefits over a traditional …

The characteristics of aortic valvular outflow jet affect aortopathy in the bicuspid aortic valve
(BAV). This study aimed to elucidate the effects of BAV morphology on the aortic valvular …
