Background and objectives: Endovascular prosthesis placement is a predominant surgical procedure to reduce the risk of aneurysm rupture in abdominal aortic aneurysm patients. The formation of an endoleak is a major complication of stent-graft placement. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the influence of stent-graft’s spatial configuration on the risk of leakage under realistic flow...Show More
Background and objectives: Post-operative complications of endovascular aneurysm repair, such as endoleaks, migration, or angular bands in a stent-graft or narrowing and occlusion of a stent-graft lumen are potentially life-threatening and difficult to perceive without constant monitoring. Therefore, our work aimed to propose a new ex-vivo system called Human-Cardiovascular-System-Phantom (HCSP) t...Show More
We aimed at verification of a novel algorithm for semiautomatic reconstruction of the branches of human aortic arch for blood perfusion analysis used later in the Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD). The algorithm works on initially adjusted CT scans divided into segments. Obtained binary segmentation results were next checked manually and corrected if needed. The final reconstruction was used for p...Show More
