Predictive medicine uses computational tools to create patient-specific cardiovascular models, improving surgery planning. This approach enhances treatment outcome prediction beyond traditional methods for cardiovascular disease.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Surgery
  • Medical Imaging
  • Computational Biology

Background:

  • Current cardiovascular disease surgery planning relies on diagnostic imaging, empirical data, and surgeon judgment.
  • Individual biological variability limits the predictive accuracy of traditional methods for treatment outcomes.
  • There is a need for advanced tools to predict treatment efficacy for individual patients.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a new paradigm of predictive medicine for cardiovascular disease treatment planning.
  • To develop and implement a software system for Simulation-Based Medical Planning.
  • To evaluate patient-specific treatment alternatives using computational modeling.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a Simulation-Based Medical Planning system with an Internet-based user interface (Java, VRML).
