Abstract
Personalized blood flow models are used for optimization of the Fontan procedure. In this paper we discuss clinical data for model initialization. Before the Fontan procedure patients undergo CT or MRI examination. Computational domain of interest is reconstructed from this data. CT images are shown to have a better spatial resolution and quality and are more suitable for segmentation. MRI data gives information about blood flow rates and it is utilized for setting boundary conditions in local 3D hemodynamic models.
We discovered that the MRI data is contradictory and too inaccurate for setting boundary conditions: the error of measured velocities is comparable with blood velocities in veins. We discuss a multiscale 1D3D circulation model as potentially suitable for prediction of the Fontan procedure results. Such model may be initialized with more reliable data (MR measurements of blood flow in aorta and ultrasound examination of easily accessible vessels) and take into account collateral and fenestration blood flows which are typical for Fontan patients. We have calculated these flow rates for several patients and demonstrated that such flows occur systematically.
期刊介绍:
ACS Applied Bio Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of biomaterials and biointerfaces including and beyond the traditional biosensing, biomedical and therapeutic applications.
The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrates knowledge in the areas of materials, engineering, physics, bioscience, and chemistry into important bio applications. The journal is specifically interested in work that addresses the relationship between structure and function and assesses the stability and degradation of materials under relevant environmental and biological conditions.
