  • Designed PyMeshTool for streamlined interaction with Python modules and NumPy.
  • Implemented and compared two anatomical twinning pipelines: one using PyMeshTool and another calling MeshTool externally.
  • Evaluated performance based on runtime and data output across varying OpenMP threads.
  • Main Results:

    • PyMeshTool offers seamless integration with Python modules and NumPy.
    • Reduced storage usage by ~88% (4 files, 89.5MB vs. 418 files, 774.9MB).
    • Shortened source code by ~63% and achieved up to four times faster runtime.

    Conclusions:

    • PyMeshTool significantly streamlines image and mesh processing in Python.
    • The module simplifies the development of complex computational pipelines for cardiac modeling.
    • Freely available PyMeshTool aims to accelerate research and clinical applications of digital twin technology.
