Compliance-matching vascular grafts with personalization potential

Aortic diseases are characterized by dire prognosis and inadequate diagnosis, owing to their insidious yet lethal nature. Aortopathies, namely aortic aneurysms and dissections, along with certain congenital diseases, might necessitate surgical replacement ...

Cross-Modal Learning of Housing Quality in Amsterdam

Devis Tuia, Alex Hubertus Levering

In our research we test data and models for the recognition of housing quality in the city of Amsterdam from ground-level and aerial imagery. For ground-level images we compare Google StreetView (GSV) to Flickr images. Our results show that GSV predicts th ...

Improved susceptibility-weighted imaging for high contrast and resolution thalamic nuclei mapping at 7T

Meritxell Bach Cuadra, João Pedro Forjaco Jorge, Constantin Tuleasca, José Pedro Rebelo Ferreira Marques, Frédéric Gretsch, Daniel Gallichan, Elena Najdenovska

Purpose The thalamus is an important brain structure and neurosurgical target, but its constituting nuclei are challenging to image non-invasively. Recently, susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) at ultra-high field has shown promising capabilities for tha ...

A computational fluid-structure interaction analysis of coronary Y-grafts

Alfio Quarteroni, Christian Vergara

Coronary artery disease is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. The stenotic coronary vessels are generally treated with coronary artery bypass grafts (CABGs), which can be either arterial (internal mammary artery, radial artery) or venous (saphen ...

Laue micro-diffraction and crystal plasticity finite element simulations to reveal a vein structure in fatigued Cu

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Nicolò Grilli, Ainara Irastorza Landa

The formation of a vein during cyclic shearing of a single copper crystal oriented for single slip can be followed in transmission Laue diffraction by analyzing the spatially resolved lattice rotation evolution. Because Laue transmission integrates the sig ...

How to prevent venous cannula orifice obstruction during extracorporeal circulation

Julien Favre

Venous cannula orifice obstruction is an underestimated problem during augmented cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), which can potentially be reduced with redesigned, virtually wall-less cannula designs versus traditional percutaneous control venous cannulas. A ...

Prevention of Caval Collapse During Venous Drainage for CPB

Julien Favre

A new plastic self-expanding Smartcanula (Smartcanula LLC, Lausanne, Switzerland) is designed for central insertion and prevention of caval collapse. The objective of our work is to assess the influence of the new design on atrial chatter. Caval collapse o ...

High bi-atrial organization in patients with long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation terminated within the left atrium

Jean-Marc Vesin, Andréa Buttu, Etienne Pruvot

Sustained atrial fibrillation (AF) is maintained by sites displaying high dominant frequency (DF). In patients (pts) with long-standing persistent AF (LS-pAF), their spatial distribution and the presence of a left-to-right atrial DF gradient remain poorly ...

Biomechanical, morphological and zero-stress state characterization of jugular vein remodeling in arteriovenous fistulas for hemodialysis

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos

While the role of hemodynamic variables on the development of intimal hyperplasia in arteriovenous fistulas for hemodialysis has been examined, less is known about the intramural biomechanical factors. In this study, arteriovenous fistulas were created by ...

Local hemodynamics and intimal hyperplasia at the venous side of a porcine arteriovenous shunt

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos

Venous anastomotic intimal hyperplasia (IH) observed in the arteriovenous shunt (AVS) has been associated with disturbed hemodynamics. This study aims to correlate hemodynamics with wall histology and wall mechanics by examining the flow field in AVS with ...
