Inflow mapping method for numerical flow simulations of OCT-based patient-specific vessels using CFD

Alteration of the flow characteristics in coronary vessels is correlated with coronary heart disease (CHD). In particular, wall shear stress (WSS) appears to be a hemody-namic key factor in the genesis of CHD. Since computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a well-known method for the inves-tigation of...
