Non-Invasive Assessment of Coronary Artery Disease Using FFRCT Coronary artery disease (CAD) is characterized by the narrowing of coronary arteries due to atherosclerotic plaque accumulation. Traditionally, the severity of a coronary stenosis is assessed using Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR), an invasive procedure requiring catheterization and pressure measurements within the coronary arteries. Computational Fluid Dynamics has […]
Current Applications of CFD in Cardiology
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has become an important tool for investigating cardiovascular diseases. By simulating blood flow within patient-specific anatomical models, CFD allows researchers and clinicians to evaluate hemodynamic conditions that cannot be directly measured through conventional imaging techniques. Coronary Artery Disease One of the most common applications of CFD is the assessment of coronary […]
Cardiovascular disease presence and uses of CFD
Cardiovascular disease remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide, accounting for millions of deaths each year, accounting for 32% of global deaths in 2022. Conditions such as coronary artery disease, heart failure, aneurysms, and valvular disorders place a significant burden on healthcare systems and contribute to reduced quality of life for affected individuals.
