Porcine In-vivo Validation of a Virtual Contrast Model: the Influence of Contrast Agent Properties and Vessel Flow Rates

摘要

Background and PurposeAccurately and efficiently modelling the transport of angiographic contrast currently offers the best method to verify CFD simulations, and with it, progress toward the lofty goal of aneurysm treatment outcome prediction a priori. This study specifically examines the influence of estimated flow rate and contrast properties on such in-silico predictions of aneurysm contrast residence and decay.
