MDCT-based dynamic, subject-specific lung models via image registration for CFD-based interrogation of regional lung function

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has become an attractive tool in understanding the characteristic of air flow in the human lungs. Inter-subject variations make subject-specific simulations essential for understanding structure-function relationship, assessing lung function and improving drug deli...
