This review summarizes scientific findings from three European Commission FP7 projects. The first, ARTREAT (2008-2013), focused on a multi-level, patient-specific model of artery and atherogenesis for outcome prediction, treatment decision support, and virtual hands-on training. An original method for plaque formation and development was created an...

Aortic dissection is a severe clinical condition that demands a thorough understanding of the interactions between the true and false lumens. In this study, numerical simulations were performed for two patients, generating two preoperative and two postoperative models. The analyses were carried out using the PAKSF solver, a specialized tool for flu...

X-ray angiography is one of the diagnostic procedures applied in clinical practice to analyze the state of patient-specific coronary arteries. During this examination a parameter called fractional flow reserve (FFR) is invasively measured to quantitatively assess the existence of potential stenosis and its significance. The software proposed in thi...
