Biomechanics of the Heart: From Model to Patient provides readers with a comprehensive overview of the modelling and assessment of the heart's biomechanics. It addresses topics such as the physiology of normal and diseased hearts, cardiovascular imaging, modelling of myocardial tissue in the passive and active states, as well as state-of-the-art approaches for patient specific modelling of the heart's mechanical function. This is augmented by case studies and examples of the exploitation of models for computer-aided diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of heart diseases. Readers are introduced to modelling of the heart's anatomical and muscular structure, a review of imaging techniques to analyze the geometry, content and dynamics of the heart, as well as an in-depth look at the biomechanical properties of normal and diseased hearts. Chapters also cover modelling cardiac passive and contractile mechanics, biomechanical finite element simulations of the heart, patient-specific modeling of the heart and circulatory system, as well as the exploitation of models for computer-aided diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of heart diseases.
