Author: Claudio Chiastra, Politecnico di Milano, Milan, Italy
CONCLUSION
- 3D reconstruction method of stented coronary bifurcation models from OCT for fluid dynamics simulations
- Able to reconstruct continuous 3D stent geometries with high accuracy
- Able to capture malapposed struts
- Able to reconstruct every type of coronary stent (i.e. with rectangular / circular cross-section)
- Validation of the reconstruction method
- Good replication of the lumen and stent
- The more the landmarks, the less the twist angle error between OCT frames
- Application of the reconstruction method patient-specifc cases
