RHU assistant professor of Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineering, Dr. Iyad Fayssal, has recently published a journal article titled “A Fast Algebraic Approach for Noninvasive Prediction of Fractional Flow Reserve in Coronary Arteries” in the journal of Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering.
His article reports the development of physics-based reduced methods that help cardiologists non-invasively diagnose the hemodynamic significance of coronary artery disease in a fraction of a second. These methods also help them avoid the employment of traditional, complicated, and time-consuming three-dimensional numerical techniques while preserving inherent accuracy to a high degree.
