Interactive cardiological tool developed by researchers at
Maastricht UMC+ (press release by MUMC+)
Researchers at Maastricht UMC+ have developed an interactive
tool to gain further insight into cardiovascular physiology. With the CircAdapt
computer program, users can mimic heart defects and simulate blood flow, blood
volume and blood pressure. Although initially designed for educational purposes
and scientific research, this interactive tool may also be used by clinical
cardiologists in the future. The researchers will publish the results of their
simulation tool in the prestigious European Heart Journal.
