Forward Computational Modeling of Respiratory Airflow by Emmanuel A. Akor, Bing Han, Mingchao Cai, Ching-Long Lin, David W. Kaczka

“…Such computational techniques are also useful for analyzing structure–function relationships in healthy and diseased lungs, assessing regional ventilation at various time points over the course of clinical treatment, or elucidating the changes in airflow patterns over the life span. CFD has also allowed for the development and use of image-based (i.e., patient-specific) models of three-dimensional (3D) airway trees with realistic boundary conditions to achieve more meaningful and personalized data that may be useful for planning effective treatment protocols. …”
