| dc.description.abstract | Interest for human vascular hemodynamics is an old research issue. In recent years, however, a renewed growth and interest has been prompted by the increase in sophistication in both non-invasive diagnostic technology and cardiovascular surgical techniques. In the clinical setting, in addition to the global hemodynamics, local and organspecific information are being sought after. This is particularly important in the design of reconstructive procedures to suit individual patients and in the quantitative assessment of cardiovascular pathophysiology. Large research effort is currently being devoted to examine local fluid dynamics in various portions of the circulatory system, especially in the presence of complex geometry (such as vessel branching, junctions, connections, and stenoses) or flow patterns (such as those due to pulsatility, swirling, vortices, and jets). Local hemodynamics is responsible for pressure changes that in turn influence blood flow distribution in the downstream vessels or organs | |
