Synchrotron-based phase contrast imaging of cardiovascular tissue in mice-grating interferometry or phase propagation?

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Lydia Aslanidou, Bram Trachet, Goran Lovric, Mauro Ferraro, Patrick Segers

Synchrotron-based x-ray phase-contrast imaging allows for detailed 3D insight into the microstructure of soft tissue and is increasingly used to improve our understanding of mouse models of cardiovascular disease. Two techniques dominate the field: grating ...

How Flow Reduction Influences the Intracranial Aneurysm Occlusion: A Prospective 4D Phase-Contrast MRI Study

Mohamed Farhat, Philippe Reymond, Pierre Bouillot

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Flow-diverter stents are widely used for the treatment of wide-neck intracranial aneurysms. Various parameters may influence intracranial aneurysm thrombosis, including the flow reduction induced by flow-diverter stent implantation, ...

On the importance of the nonuniform aortic stiffening in the hemodynamics of physiological aging

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Bram Trachet, Vasiliki Bikia, Stamatia Zoi Pagoulatou

Mathematical models of the arterial tree constitute a valuable tool to investigate the hemodynamics of aging and pathology. Rendering such models as patient specific could allow for the assessment of central hemodynamic variables of clinical interest. Howe ...

Angiotensin II infusion into ApoE(-/-) mice: a model for aortic dissection rather than abdominal aortic aneurysm?

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Lydia Aslanidou, Jessica Sordet, Bram Trachet, Alessandra Piersigilli, Patrick Segers

Aims Angiotensin II-infused ApoE(-/-) mice are a popular mouse model for preclinical aneurysm research. Here, we provide insight in the often-reported but seldom-explained variability in shape of dissecting aneurysms in these mice. Methods and results N=45 ...

Computational comparison of aortic root stresses in presence of stentless and stented aortic valve bio-prostheses

Alfio Quarteroni, Christian Vergara, Elena Faggiano

We provide a computational comparison of the performance of stentless and stented aortic prostheses, in terms of aortic root displacements and internal stresses. To this aim, we consider three real patients; for each of them, we draw the two prostheses con ...

Cardiovascular morphometry with high-resolution 3D magnetic resonance: First application to left ventricle diastolic dysfunction

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Orestis Vardoulis, Davide Piccini

In this study, an image-based morphometry toolset quantifying geometric descriptors of the left ventricle, aorta and their coupling is applied to investigate whether morphological information can differentiate between subjects affected by diastolic dysfunc ...

Shear stress alterations in the celiac trunk of patients with a continuous-flow left ventricular assist device as shown by in-silico and in-vitro flow analyses

Alfio Quarteroni, Christian Vergara

BACKGROUND: The use of left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) to treat advanced cardiac heart failure is constantly increasing, although this device leads to high risk for gastrointestinal bleeding. METHODS: Using in-silico flow analysis, we quantified he ...
