Aneurysm II: Clinical Manifestations and Diagnostic Studies

251
Thoracic, aortic arch and abdominal aneurysms are significant vascular conditions that can present with various clinical manifestations and lead to serious complications. Understanding these manifestations and the appropriate diagnostic studies is essential for effective management and treatment.Thoracic Aortic AneurysmsThoracic aortic aneurysms often remain asymptomatic until they reach a size that impinges on adjacent structures. They typically cause deep, diffuse chest pain that radiates to...

    Area of Science:

    • Cardiovascular Science
    • Medical Visualization
    • Computational Fluid Dynamics

    Background:

    • Aortic dissection is a critical cardiovascular condition where blood enters the aortic wall's media layer, forming a false lumen.
    • Current risk assessment relies on aortic morphology, but hemodynamics are crucial for disease progression and challenging to visualize.
    • Existing flow visualization methods often suffer from visual clutter in complex aortic dissection geometries.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To implement and assess various visualization techniques for effectively depicting blood flow in aortic dissections.
    • To enhance visualization methods for improved clarity and fidelity in complex dissection anatomies.
    • To understand domain-specific preferences and interpretability needs among medical professionals and visualization experts.

    Main Methods:

    • Employed three visualization techniques: streaklines with depth-dependent halos, transparent streaklines, and enhanced smoke surfaces.
    • Adapted smoke surface opacity modulation for complex dissection geometries and developed customized seeding structures.
    • Conducted an online evaluation with medical professionals, fluid simulation experts, and visualization specialists.

    Main Results:

    • No single technique was universally superior; preferences varied across expert groups.
    • Smoke surfaces provided the highest clarity and visual realism, resembling clinical contrast-agent injections.
    • Streaklines with halos excelled in flow quantification but introduced significant visual clutter.
    • Transparent streaklines offered a balance between clarity and detail.

    Conclusions:

    • Effective visualization of aortic dissection hemodynamics requires tailored approaches.
    • Smoke surfaces are highly appealing and realistic, aiding medical professionals' understanding.
    • Streakline variations offer utility for quantitative analysis, though clarity remains a challenge.
    • The choice of visualization technique should consider the specific analytical or clinical goals.
