heart-assistThe Virtual Mock Loop, a versatile virtual mock circulation loop, was developed using a lumped-parameter model of the mechanically assisted human circulatory system. Inputs allow specification of a variety of continuous-flow pumps (left, right, or biventricular assist devices) and a ...
It is an ef- fective research tool and a virtual simulation laboratory [78–80]. HeMoLab consists of a combination of models, which can be coupled locally and globally in order to obtain the systemic response of the cardiovascular system: the so-called 3-D, 1-D and 0-D models. The ...
On the other hand, there is another need for the simulation of capillary vessels <20 µm in diameter in the superficial layer of the mucosa of the colon, which are especially targeted for cancer diagnosis by using a spectral endoscopy system [27]. In this case, both methods, ...
