Computational biomechanics fluid-structure-growth framework of the human aorta to capture the long term response of an intervention. KU Leuven
The anatomical and physiological behavior of some computational biomechanics models of the aorta has achieved a level which can almost be considered in some cases as ''virtual patient''. Unfortunately, these models still lack the capability of predicting the response of soft tissue to surgical interventions. On the other hand, thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has been accepted as the mainstream treatment for some cardiovascular ...
