Dear developer,

I read a paper these days: Thrombotic risk stratification using computational modeling in patients with coronary artery aneurysms following Kawasaki disease (Dibyendu Sengupta et al.). It's about using Simvascular to calculate coronary arteries in KD patients.

Particle residence time(PRT)

was mentioned in the article. Is this parameter calculated by Simvascular? If so, how to get it?

Thank you very much and may you a sweet day.^ ^

Yours,
Dai

Hello Dai,

SimVascular does not calculate particle residence time, that needs to be preformed on simulation results (velocity field) using post-processing software (e.g. ParaView). The Shadden Lab FlowVC software can calculate particle residence time. See https://shaddenlab.berkeley.edu/software.html.

Cheers,
Dave
