OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
The complex structure and dynamic characteristics of the flows in respiratory airways remain challenges to the researchers to understand. The medical image-based computational modelling technique enables to reveal the complex flow behaviours in the patient-specific geometries. This talk aims to present a full-scale conducting airway model generated based on the high resolution CT images and the volume filling algorithm. The model illustrates the unstable respiratory flow patterns induced by the asymmetric geometry of physiological airways. I also would like to discuss the potentials, limitations and future goals of the current computational model development to support the clinical diagnoses and treatments.
