... techniques in the present scenario and their applications across various medical fields. Illustrations on X-ray imaging, computational fluid dynamics, enhanced microscopic techniques, and several other medical representations lead the rest of the discussion. The chapter focuses mainly on blood flow imaging...

... the main properties of LB as a numerical scheme within the general framework of computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The matter has witnessed significant developments in the past decade, and even though the bottomline picture of LB as a very effective numerical scheme stands intact, a number of assessments...

... (23.44) : ω f = 0 (no-collisions) and ω f = 2 (infinitely strong collisions). As we have learned in Chapter 22 on entropic LB, both these extrema leave the entropy unchanged. The LBEs discussed to this point lag behind “best in class” Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) methods...

... of computational fluid dynamics to the patient-specific anatomical three-dimensional model of the coronary tree obtained with the CCTA. As a result, CT-FFR can be computed and displayed at any point along the coronary vessels. This chapter includes practical information to help the physician using CT-FFR...

... Correspondence address: Aerospace Engineering and Mechanics, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55455, U.S.A. Introduces some of the methods and underlying ideas behind computational fluid dynamics—in particular, the use is discussed of finite‐difference methods for the simulation...
