ANSYS in ACTION: Fluid Flow from Blood Vessels Scans

Comment on this article

Information about blood pressure and flow through blood vessels is valuable to doctors working to improve patient health, and to medical device manufacturers looking to improve their product designs.

Simulation is one way to gain deep insight about hemodynamic effects. However, a simulation must be performed for each individual patient to be truly effective. Blood vessels are tortuous and irregularly shaped, making them nearly impossible to draw using CAD methods. As a result, medical scanning techniques the result in STL files are the usual source of simulation geometry.

Join us for a 20-minute webinar to see how simulation software makes it easy to go from raw STL geometry to blood flow analysis using ANSYS solutions.
