Rivers are Earth's arteries. Water, sediment and nutrients self-organize into diverse, dynamic channels as they journey from ...

To simulate blood flow inside brain aneurysms, researchers from Japan have developed a computational method that combines 4D ...

Women with type 2 diabetes are nearly twice as likely as men to have hidden heart damage, according to a study by University ...

Discover 5 critical warning signs of clogged heart arteries. Early recognition of these symptoms could save your life by ...

Young men who use anabolic-androgenic steroids, or those who’ve used them in the past, are more likely to have reduced myocardial flow reserve than those who’ve never taken the drugs, according to ...

Coronary flow reserve (CFR) is an important indicator of coronary artery disease and how the coronary arteries adapt to certain physiological conditions.

Coronary blood flow pattern was the most important independent predictor of left ventricular remodeling, odds ratio =6.14 (95% CI, 1.56-24.17). Conclusions.

Multiple patterns of disturbed coronary flow may occur when blood flow separates from the laminar plane, associated with inefficient blood transit, and pathological processes modulated by the vascular ...

Learn about the anatomy of the heart and how its chambers, valves, and vessels work together to maintain effective blood circulation throughout the body to sustain life.

Diffuse coronary artery disease (CAD) affects the safety and effectiveness of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). Using fractional flow reserve (FFR) pullbacks, we can measure CAD patterns, ...

Coronary artery disease affects the arteries that supply the heart muscle with blood. It can be treated through surgery, medications, and lifestyle changes.

Researchers at Queen Mary University of London have developed a simple and rapid technique to reconstruct 3D pressure and shear stress fields in coronary arteries. This new method, published in ...
