Biomedical engineers are developing a massive fluid dynamics simulator that can model blood flow through the full human arterial system at subcellular resolution. One of the goals of the effort is to provide doctors with a virtual reality system that can guide their treatment plans by allowing them to simulate a patient’s specific vasculature and accurately predict how decisions such as stent placement, conduit insertions and other geometric alterations will affect surgical outcomes.
