[hal-01087841] Evaluation of Personalised Canine Electromechanical Models

Cardiac modelling aims at understanding cardiac diseases and predicting cardiac responses to therapies. By generating the elec-trical propagation, the contraction and the mechanical response, we are able to simulate cardiac motion from non-invasive imaging techniques. Four healthy canine clinical data (left ventricles) were provided by the STACOM'2014 challenge. Our study is based on Bestel-Clement-Sorine mechanical modelling, while the electrophysiological phenomena is driven by an Eikonal model. Our model has been calibrated by a quantitative sensitivity study as well as a personalized automatic calibration. Results and comparison with clinical measures are shown in terms of left ventricular volume, flow, pressure and ejection fraction.
