Cardiovascular Flow Dynamics : Methods and Clinical Applications

Abstract:

Recent advances in medical imaging, modeling , and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) have allowed the modeling of local blood flow patterns in realistic, personalized vascular districts aiming
at (1) improving the current understanding of the role played by the local hemodynamics in vascular pathophysiology, and in a wider perspective (2) demonstrating how some clinical information can be
derived from computational simulations. This mini course will offer an in depth overview of the real world applications of mathematical techniques to investigate the intricate mechanisms governing
blood flows within the human cardiovascular system e xplor ing the clinical applications of cardiovascular flow dynamics in diagnosing and managing cardiovascular diseases , ultimately improving patient outcomes.
