Patient-Specific CT-Based Fluid-Structure-Interaction Aorta Model to Quantify Mechanical Conditions for the Investigation of Ascending Aortic Dilation in TOF Patients

Figure 2

In the middle: 3D reconstructed aorta of two representatives from each group. On the left: structure mesh (up) and fluid mesh with imposed pressure conditions (down) of the dilated group representative. On the right: structure mesh (up) and fluid mesh with imposed pressure conditions (down) of the nondilated group representative.
