This NIH grant project focuses on developing a computational framework to study the mechanistic links between atrial fibrosis and stroke risk, aiming to improve stroke prevention strategies.
Description
The project aims to use computer modeling and medical imaging to understand stroke mechanisms related to atrial fibrosis. It involves creating a multi-physics framework to simulate patient-specific atrial models, examining how fibrosis affects thrombogenesis, and validating findings through a clinical study.
