Computer System for Computer Aided Design (CAD) Modeling of a Mitral Valve

Abstract

Systems and method for generating a patient specific CAD model of a mitral valve include receiving digital images of a mitral valve of a patient and segmenting the digital images to identify structures of the mitral valve. A CAD model of the mitral valve is generated including modeled structures representing the identified structures. The modeled structures in the CAD model are connected at multiple locations. First loading conditions for the modeled structures are determined using a first hemodynamics model. Movement of the modeled structures are simulated based on the first loading conditions. A specified area is determined based on the CAD model. Second loading conditions are determined using a second hemodynamics model that receives the specified area as an input. The CAD model is calibrated by modifying a configuration of the modeled structures in the CAD model based on the loading conditions and movement of the modeled structures.
