Evaluating MRI based vascular wall motion as a biomarker of Fontan performance
Menon, P.G., Hong, H. "Evaluating MRI based vascular wall motion as a biomarker of Fontan hemodynamic performance." SPIE Medical Imaging Symposium. Orlando, FL. 25 February 2015. (Poster Presentation)
Abstract: The Fontan procedure is a palliative surgery for complex congenital heart disease wherein blood from the superior & inferior vena cavae (SVC, IVC) into the pulmonary circuit, bypassing the right ventricle. Minimal caval energy loss and optimal flow distributions to left & right pulmonary arteries is paramount to procedure success. However, evaluation of the same requires high-performance computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling, which limits applicability to patient management in the clinic. In this study, we evaluate biomarkers of vascular wall motion from cine cardiovascular MRI to link Fontan morphology with hemodynamic efficiency, paving the way a non-invasive clinical test.
