Medical application oriented blood flow simulation

In order to show the application of computational fluid dynamics in biomedical engineering, some numerical simulations of blood flow in arteries, such as hemodynamics of bypass graft for stenosed arteries, hemodynamics of stented aneurysm at the aortic arch, hemodynamics of bypass treatment for DeBakey III aortic dissection, and influence of blood flow on the thermal characteristics of microwave ablation, which were performed by the authors, were reviewed. These simulations can be a powerful tool for the computer assisted surgery in medical application.
