We analyze the behavior of fluids of biological interest in natural ducts such as arteries or veins and we are able to determine the evolution of particles and their possible deposition in these ducts.
From the 3D geometry, a numerical simulation is carried out using CFD techniques that allows us to reproduce the blood circulation and calculate the FFRct.
Results are plotted automatically, showing the patient’s diagnosis in detail and precision.
