Improvement of haemodynamic stent strut configuration for patent ductus arteriosus through computational modelling

Currently, the treatment of Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA) by the implantation of coronary stent has resulted in severe hemodynamic complications. There is thus a need to customize and improve current stent geometry specific to PDA to overcome this problem. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) approac...
