Vortex Formation in the Cardiovascular System
Vortex Formation in the Cardiovascular System will recapitulate the current knowledge about the vortex formation in the cardiovascular system, from mechanics to cardiology. This can facilitate the interaction between basic scientists and clinicians on the topic of the circulatory system. The book begins with a synopsis of the fundamentals aspects of fluid mechanics to give the reader the essential background to address the proceeding chapters. Then the fundamental elements of vortex dynamics will be discussed, explaining the conditions for their formation and the rules governing their dynamics. The main equations are accompanied by mathematical models. Cardiovascular vortex formation is firs...
Irena's Children
Presents the story of a Holocaust rescuer to reveal the formidable risks she took to her own safety to save some 2,500 children from death and deportation in Nazi-occupied Poland during World War II.
Non-Invasive Health Systems based on Advanced Biomedical Signal and Image Processing
This book contains up-to-date noninvasive monitoring and diagnosing systems closely developed by a set of scientists, engineers, and physicians. The chapters are the results of different biomedical projects and theoretical studies that were coupled by simulations and real-world data. Non-Invasive Health Systems based on Advanced Biomedical Signal and Image Processing provides a multifaceted view of various biomedical and clinical approaches to health monitoring systems.

Automated Assessment of Blood Flow in the Cardiovascular System Using 4D Flow MRI
Medical image analysis focuses on the extraction of meaningful information from medical images in order to facilitate clinical assessment, diagnostics and treatment. Image processing techniques have gradually become an essential part of the modern health care system, a consequence of the continuous technological improvements and the availability of a variety of medical imaging techniques. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is an imaging technique that stands out as non-invasive, highly versatile, and capable of generating high quality images without the use of ionizing radiation. MRI is frequently performed in the clinical setting to assess the morphology and function of the heart and vessels....
Fluid Mechanics for Cardiovascular Engineering
This book provides a guiding thread between the distant fields of fluid mechanics and clinical cardiology. Well rooted in the science of fluid dynamics, it drives the reader across progressively more realistic scenarios up to the complexity of routine medical applications. Based on the author’s 25 years of collaborations with cardiologists, it helps engineers learn communicating with clinicians, yet maintaining the rigor of scientific disciplines. This book starts with a description of the fundamental elements of fluid dynamics in large blood vessels. This is achieved by introducing a rigorous physical background accompanied by examples applied to the circulation, and by presenting classic...
Biomaterials for Cardiac Regeneration
This book offers readers a comprehensive biomaterials-based approach to achieving clinically successful, functionally integrated vasculogenesis and myogenesis in the heart. Coverage is multidisciplinary, including the role of extracellular matrices in cardiac development, whole-heart tissue engineering, imaging the mechanisms and effects of biomaterial-based cardiac regeneration, and autologous bioengineered heart valves. Bringing current knowledge together into a single volume, this book provides a compendium to students and new researchers in the field and constitutes a platform to allow for future developments and collaborative approaches in biomaterials-based regenerative medicine, even beyond cardiac applications.
From Interventional Pearls to Pioneering Technologies in Transcatheter Treatment of Congenital Heart Defects
Congenital and pediatric cardiology continues to advance at a rapid pace, with recent decades witnessing tremendous progress in transcatheter interventions as well as advanced 3D technologies for patient-specific therapy. Several newer devices, non-invasive image-guided therapies, and interventional techniques are appearing regularly. The novelties from the field require not only to be acknowledged but also to be broadcast within the community of interventional pediatric cardiologists. This Research Topic will highlight current strategies for the management of children and adults with congenital and structural heart disease. This Research Topic will cover a wide range of catheter-based techniques along with interventional pearls from world experts and next-generation key opinion leaders in the field of catheter-based treatment of congenital heart defects. The Research Topic will also include a comprehensive comparison of the advantages and pitfalls of commercially available devices that are designed for similar clinical applications. Attention will be drawn to important tips and tricks to assist interventionists in achieving optimal clinical and procedural outcomes.
