Heart & Keystroke: Simulating the Human Circulatory System
Division:Health Sciences
Category:Intermediate
Region:Bay Area
City:Hamilton, ON
School:Westdale Secondary School
Abstract:To determine the optimal way to relieve arterial clogging using patient-specific information, a computerized model was developed using the characteristics of the main arteries connecting the heart to the brain. This simulated human circulatory system provides doctors with an effective way to perform sensitivity analysis to determine optimal surgical procedures.
