Three-dimensional parametric modeling of bicuspid aortopathy and comparison with computational flow predictions
2016
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV)-associated ascending aneurysmal aortopathy (namely âbicuspid aortopathyâ) is a heterogeneous disease making surgeon predictions particularly challenging. Computational flow analysis can be used to evaluate the BAV-related hemodynamic disturbances, which likely lead to aneurysm enlargement and progression. However, the anatomic reconstruction process is time consuming so that predicting hemodynamic and structural evolution by computational modeling is unfeasible in routine clinical practice. The aim of the study was to design and develop a parametric program for three-dimensional (3D) representations of aneurysmal aorta and different BAV phenotypes starting fr…
