Hemodynamic study facility

拟议的研究旨在发展血液动力学研究设施，包括超声血流成像技术的发展，用于研究与动脉粥样硬化性血管疾病（如颈动脉分叉）部位相关的血流。拟议的设施将为互补的计算建模和成像技术发展提供一个独特的环境，同时使用粒子图像测速的黄金标准技术进行有价值的实验验证和验证，从而为研究血流动力学创建一个全面的设施。最终，从该设施进行的研究中获得的理解将对血管疾病的理解和治疗产生影响。

The proposed research is aimed at the development of a hemodynamic study facility that includes the development of ultrasound flow imaging techniques for investigating flow associated with sites of atherosclerotic vascular disease, such as the carotid artery bifurcation. The proposed facility will provide a unique environment for complementary computational modeling and imaging technology development, alongside valuable experimental verification and validation using the gold-standard technique of particle image velocimetry, thus creating a comprehensive facility for investigating hemodynamics. Ultimately, the understanding that will be derived from studies undertaken at the facility will have an impact on the understanding and treatment of vascular diseases.
