Abstract:
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a devastating disease caused by different etiology and characterized by the progressive elevation of pulmonary vascular resistance and pulmonary artery pressure. As a new method that applied to clinical studies, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) gradually becomes a powerful tool for in-depth understanding of the disease progression. It can noninvasively obtain the patient-specific hemodynamic parameters at any point of the vessel and present them through the visualization technology. In this paper, an overall review of CFD with the focus on PH, including the numerical simulation method, boundary conditions, blood characteristics and relevant hemodynamic parameters was presented.
