New treatment option for Aortic Aneurysm
Official title Patient Specific Biomechanical Modeling of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm to Improve Aortic Endovascular Repair
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT03481075
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- This project is aiming at the integration of a biomechanical computer program with a guidance code to simulate the endovascular repair (EVAR) procedure of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). The computational time associated with finite element simulation generally renders its usage impractical for real-time application.
