SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROVIDING PERSONALIZED ESTIMATES OF BIOHEAT TRANSFER

摘要

Systems and methods are disclosed for providing personalized estimates of bioheat transfer through a patient's body or a portion of a patient's body. One method includes receiving a patient-specific vascular model of a patient's anatomy, including at least one vessel of the patient; receiving a patient-specific tissue model including at least a portion of tissue of the patient's anatomy; receiving an estimate of heat content of the portion of tissue of the patient-specific tissue model or tissue surrounding the portion of tissue; determining an estimate of heat distribution of the portion of tissue of the patient-specific tissue model or tissue surrounding the portion of tissue based on the vascular model, the tissue model, or the received estimate of heat content; and output the determined estimate of heat distribution to a storage medium or user display.
