Abstract | In Ponzini et al. (2006) a new approach has been proposed for estimating in a
reliable way blood flow rate from velocity Doppler measurements. In that
paper, basic features of the approach and some
in silico test
cases were furnished. Here, we give more insights of this approach by
performing a sensitivity analysis of the formulae relating blood flow rate
to blood velocity. In particular we analyze their sensitivity to the
physiological parameters in comparison with the standard formula proposed in
Doucette et al. (1992). A first glance at in vivo validation of the formulae is given too. |
