Modelling of the flow in the human left ventricle is one of the most challenging problems for the present generation of blood flow modellers. Due to the complex geometry and flow features, analytical approaches are not accurate and numerical modelling is the only method which can be pursued. Powerful Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) codes developed in the last few years offer the required capabilities...
While echocardiography has relative attractions in term of cost and patient comfort, traditionally its lack of accuracy has limited its use. However, a new project involving three-dimensional echocardiography combined with appropriate image-processing, allows the reconstruction of the ventricular endocardial surface for an entire cardiac cycle and with quantitative confidence.The second novel approach...
