Abstract
Biomechanical models of the myocardium provide more details of the heart behavior and several biomechanical parameters. Thus, biomechanical heart models are important for improving clinical treatment and interventions for patients with heart failure. The aims of this study are to present a biomechanical human left ventricle (LV) models that are derived from clinical imaging data of 20 healthy subjects. End-systolic volume (ESV), end-diastolic volume (EDV), and end-diastole wall thickness from 20 health subjects were computed using cardiac CMR data and personalized cardiac modeling. The results reveal that the computed parameters are in accordance with the normal values of healthy subjects. The outcome of this study suggests that the proposed 3D model of the LV is able to describe the physiological function of the heart and to differentiate between normal and pathological heart function.
