In recent years, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has been applied to biological systems for the study of physiological properties and the development of new medical devices. It has also been used for the hemodynamic evaluation of care in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of cardiovascular diseases. This article presents a brief analysis of the application of Computational Fluid Dynamics in hemodynamics in atherosclerosis, with a review of CFD in the study of blood flow, and in the medical area.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
