Research project seeking students: Stents are meshed wired scaffolds implanted into narrowed arteries to prevent heart attacks and strokes. They still fail in 1 in 10 patients besides being the most common treatment for the largest cause of death world-wide. 

The aim of this work is to generate CAD models from micro-CT images of stented patient replicas. The replicas represent the anatomical/geometric distribution found within a large population. The CAD models will be used to generate CFD simulation of the blood flow, revealing their effectiveness for that patient…

Stents are meshed wired scaffolds implanted into narrowed arteries to prevent heart attacks and strokes. They still fail in 1 in 10 patients besides being the most common treatment for the largest cause of death world-wide. 

The aim of our work is to expand a number of numerical CFD simulations to generate input for a developed multi-object algorithm. The optimum design trade offs for modern stents can then be determined through several iterations of solutions. 

The specific outcome are new guidelines for clinicians to be implemented in practice,…

Research Project seeking students: Cardiovascular disease is the single largest killer in the world, causing heart attacks and strokes. Experimental investigation of underlying principals are key in combating this epidemic, however individual considerations are still completely missing.

We are continuously expanding the Coronary Atlas, which is a virtual map of arterial shape and blood flow. Using in-house build tools to run bash programmed batch processes on the National Computing Infrastructure we can fast process hundreds of medical CT images at the time. These are then…

Cardiovascular disease is the single largest killer in the world, causing heart attacks and strokes. Experimental investigation of underlying principals are key in combating this epidemic, however individual considerations are still completely missing.  

The aim of this work is to develop accurate machine learning neural networks to identify links between a large set of demographic, arterial shape and flow data with clinical risk. This will help to identify biomarkers which can be deployed in clinical practice for early risk detection.

Enhance the next generation of immersive technologies for medical surgeries. Learn how imaging, visualisation and personalised simulations can be used to assist with difficult surgeries, ranging from the spine to heart atrial fibrillation intervention, all with 3D visualisation in real time, so 4D.
