Patient-Specific CT-Based Fluid-Structure-Interaction Aorta Model to Quantify Mechanical Conditions for the Investigation of Ascending Aortic Dilation in TOF Patients
Background. Some adult patients with Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) were found to simultaneously develop ascending aortic dilation. Severe aortic dilation would lead to several aortic diseases, including aortic aneurysm and dissection, which seriously affect patients’ living quality and even cause patien...
