Abstract
A method and system for assessment of virtual stent implantation in an aortic aneurysm is disclosed. A patient-specific 4D anatomical model of the aorta is generated from the 4D medical imaging data. A model representing mechanical properties of the aorta wall is adjusted to reflect changes due to aneurysm growth at a plurality of time stages. A stable deformation configuration of the aorta is generated for each time stages by performing fluid structure interaction (FSI) simulations using the patient-specific 4D anatomical model at each time stage based on the adjusted model representing the mechanical properties of the aorta wall at each time stage. Virtual stent implantation is performed for each stable deformation configuration of the aorta and FSI simulations are performed for each virtual stent implantation.
