    Area of Science:

    • Pharmacokinetics and Physiological Modeling
    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Systems Biology

    Background:

    • Traditional compartment analysis can yield inaccurate results when recirculation or mixing transients are significant.
    • Existing models often struggle to account for complex dynamic processes within biological systems.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a novel approach that integrates classical compartment analysis with indicator-dilution theory.
    • To overcome limitations of traditional methods in scenarios with recirculation and mixing transients.
    • To provide a conceptually simple and extensible model for physiological system analysis.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a unified model combining compartment analysis and indicator-dilution principles.
    • Application and validation of the model using simulation examples.
