The aorta

Dr. Peter Vincent and Miss Ana Plata, Imperial College, London for the small British Heart Foundation's Insight Research Competition 2010 The first animation shows the structure of the main artery of a model organism from the computer, the aorta, with the scanning of a cast of blood vessels from rabbits. The second video shows the movement of blood in this model. Atherosclerosis, a disease which is the development of fatty plaques in arteries, the cause of most heartheart attacks and strokes. During the last decade, it has been demonstrated that the presence of flux because of the disease on how the blood. A computer representation of the structure of the blood vessels will help researchers accurately the flow of blood to the model to study its relation to heart disease. "Our research group BHF-funded using computational fluid dynamics techniques, advanced to solve the problems in the biomedical field. These animations are the result of a joint effort and strongbetween physicians, biologists and engineers, "the first video Plata Ana P. Vincent, A. Hunt, S. Sherwin, P. Weinberg Second video:. A.
