Computational simulation platform for planning of interventional procedures

摘要

In accordance with embodiments of this disclosure, a computational simulation platform comprises a computer-implemented method that includes: generating a three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of a vessel lumen and a surface of the vessel lumen based on invasive or non-invasive imaging; generating a mesh of the 3D reconstructed vessel lumen and surface of the vessel lumen; assigning material properties to the 3D reconstructed surface of the vessel lumen; importing design and material properties of stents and balloons; generating a mesh of a stent and balloon; positioning the meshed stent and balloon within the mesh of the 3D reconstructed vessel lumen and surface of the vessel lumen; performing balloon pre-dilation, stenting and balloon post-dilation computational simulations with the mesh of the 3D reconstructed vessel lumen and surface of the vessel lumen; and assessing stent and vessel morphometric and biomechanical measures based on the computational simulations.
