Compliance-matching vascular grafts with personalization potential

Georgios Rovas

Aortic diseases are characterized by dire prognosis and inadequate diagnosis, owing to their insidious yet lethal nature. Aortopathies, namely aortic aneurysms and dissections, along with certain congenital diseases, might necessitate surgical replacement ...

Design and computational optimization of compliance-matching aortic grafts

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Georgios Rovas, Vasiliki Bikia

Introduction: Synthetic vascular grafts have been widely used in clinical practice for aortic replacement surgery. Despite their high rates of surgical success, they remain significantly less compliant than the native aorta, resulting in a phenomenon calle ...

In this paper, we study the correlation between the wall shear stress, a hemodynamical index derived from numerical simulations, and an new index MFA-ILT for the characterization of intraluminal thrombus (ILT) in the presence of abdominal aortic aneurysms. ...

Animal models of aortic aneurysm and dissection can enhance our limited understanding of the etiology of these lethal conditions particularly because early-stage longitudinal data are scant in humans. Yet, the pathogenesis of often-studied mouse models and ...

Analysis of morphological and haemodynamical indexes in abdominal aortic aneurysms as preliminary indicators of intraluminal thrombus deposition

Alfio Quarteroni, Simone Deparis, Claudia Maria Colciago

In this paper we study the correlation between the Wall Shear Stress (WSS), a haemodynamical index derived from numerical simulations, and an new index MFA-ILT for the characterisation of intraluminal thrombus (ILT) in presence of abdominal aortic aneurysm ...

Mathematical models of the arterial tree constitute a valuable tool to investigate the hemodynamics of aging and pathology. Rendering such models as patient specific could allow for the assessment of central hemodynamic variables of clinical interest. Howe ...

The onset of cardiovascular disease in mice: an image-based, computational-experimental approach

Lydia Aslanidou

In a number of cardiovascular diseases, the paucity of longitudinal human data hinders our understanding of disease evolution and forestalls the discovery of new therapeutic strategies. We therefore heavily rely on animal models to elucidate the mechanisms ...

Propagation-based phase-contrast synchrotron imaging of aortic dissection in mice: from individual elastic lamella to 3D analysis

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Lydia Aslanidou, Bram Trachet, Marco Stampanoni, Patrick Segers

In order to show the advantage and potential of propagation-based phase-contrast synchrotron imaging in vascular pathology research, we analyzed aortic medial ruptures in BAPN/AngII-infused mice, a mouse model for aortic dissection. Ascending and thoraco-a ...

In this paper, we study the blood flow dynamics in a three-dimensional (3D) idealized left ventricle of the human heart whose deformation is driven by muscle contraction and relaxation in coordination with the action of the mitral and aortic valves. We pro ...
