Embodiment 1

[0040] Clinically, examination is required to obtain information such as the size, shape, location, degree of danger, and whether it affects the blood supply of the coronary artery injury in the patient's heart. Among them, the techniques used to assess coronary artery injury of the heart can be divided into two categories: invasive examination and non-invasive examination. Invasive examination is an invasive examination, which undoubtedly brings harm to the patient's body, causes the patient's psychological and physical pain, increases medical costs and increases the risk of death of the patient. Therefore, non-invasive inspection has become a research hotspot to solve the above defects to a certain extent.

[0041] Non-invasive examinations include: electrocardiogram, examination of cardiac injury markers, exercise stress test, single-photon emission computed tomography (Single-PhotonEmission Computed Tomography, SPECT) and positron emission tomography (Positron Emission Tom...

Abstract

The invention provides a CFD-based coronary artery blood flow simulating system and method. The simulating system comprises a Computed tomography (CT) data obtaining system, a blood vessel 3D model reconstruction system, a CFD pre-processing system, a CFD computation system and a post-processing system, wherein the CT data obtaining system obtains a CT image sequence of cardiovascular system of the human body; the blood vessel 3D model reconstruction system carries out 3D reconstruction on the extracted image sequence to obtain a 3D coronary-artery blood vessel model; the CFD pre-processing module carries out pre-processing required by hydrodynamic computation on the 3D coronary-artery blood vessel model; the CFD computation system resolves a 3D flow control equation of blood in the coronary artery blood vessel and outputs a computation result; and the post-processing system adds the computation result to the corresponding position of the 3D coronary-artery blood vessel model, and displays color cloud atlas. The coronary artery FFR is calculated and used as the standard for assessing the coronary artery function, disadvantages in determining the blood supply state of the cardiac muscle in the coronary artery anatomy aspect are overcome patients are not sound, and the cost is lower.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of computer simulation, in particular to a coronary blood flow simulation system and method based on computational fluid dynamics. Background technique [0002] Coronary heart disease (CHD, coronary artery heart disease), referred to as coronary heart disease, is the most common heart disease. Refers to myocardial dysfunction and / or organic disease caused by coronary artery stenosis and insufficient blood supply. [0003] Coronary arteries are branches of the aorta, responsible for supplying oxygen and nutrients to the heart muscle, and have no side branches. When the coronary arteries become clogged with atherosclerotic plaque or blood clots, this results in insufficient blood flow to the heart. If atherosclerotic plaque occurs in the coronary arteries, the consequences of the evolution to the later stage are that the myocardial oxygen demand exceeds the oxygen supply. Infarction, heart attack, etc. Pat...
