FTGM  (Fondazione Toscana Gabriele Monasterio) is the winner of the Ansys Hall of Fame 2018 world competition in Academic Session. Using ANSYS CFD and RBF Morph, researchers created a virtual statistical patient to analyze the blood flow and blood pressure alterations during the transition of the aorta from a healthy to an aneurysmatic state. Application Summary In clinical practice, […]
