The Role of Blood Vessels in Rabbit Propagation Dynamics and Cardiac Arrhythmias

Abstract:

Recent experimental findings have suggested the important role played by blood vessels within the heart in stabilising arrhythmias. However, this link has yet to be explored computationally. In this paper, we develop a computational framework to model fibre orientation around structural inhomogeneities in myocardial tissue based on information obtained from high-resolution histological and MRI images. This framework allows the simulation of cardiac wavefront propagation for a generalised vess...
