Advances in Blood Flow Quantification Methods for Diagnosis, Monitoring, Prediction, and Personalized Treatment of Cardiovascular Disease

Advances in Blood Flow Quantification Methods for Diagnosis, Monitoring, Prediction, and Personalized Treatment of Cardiovascular Disease explains how abnormal hemodynamics (blood flow dynamics) greatly alter the cardiovascular system’s ability to transport, control and maintain blood flow throughout the body.These deviations often lead to the initiation and progression of disease.Notably, hemodynamic quantification can be extremely useful for accurate and early diagnosis of cardiovascular disease.Particularly, the ability to monitor and predict hemodynamic effects following specific interventions can significantly broaden lifesaving options.However, image-based computational modelling of predictive hemodynamics analysis methods (and therefore new diagnostic tools) are rare.By extending quantitative methods of analysis, medical professionals can foresee effects of various cardiovascular interventions, allowing for optimized, situation-based care.
