This invention presents a method to simulate how blood flows through the heart, using the reconstructed 4D motion of the endocardial surface of the left ventricle. The reconstruction, utilizing a computing device, captures the motion of the full 3D surfaces of the complex features, such as the papillary muscles and the ventricular trabeculae. By visualizing the flow field, the capability of viewing the interactions between the blood and the trabeculae in far more detail has been achieved. |
