Statistical Atlases and Computational Models of the Heart. Imaging and Modelling Challenges
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 4th International Workshop on Statistical Atlases and Computational Models of the Heart: Imaging and Modelling Challenges, STACOM 2013, held in conjunction with MICCAI 2013, in Nagoya, Japan, in September 2013. The 31 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on cardiac image processing; atlas construction; statistical modelling of cardiac function across different patient populations; cardiac mapping; cardiac computational physiology; model customization; atlas based functional analysis; ontological schemata for data and results; integrated functional and structural analyses; as well as the pre-clinical and clinical applicability of these methods.
Novel Translational Advances in Hemodynamics for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Cardiovascular Diseases
Currently, hemodynamically guided diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases has vastly improved morbidity and mortality. However, many challenges remain, such as the increasing complexity of patients' conditions, the uneven level of overall treatment, the heavy task of medical and nursing staff in treating patients, and the accelerated updating and iteration of new technologies in the discipline. In clinic settings, obtaining direct clinical access of hemodynamic parameters remains challenging, mainly due to the potential risks of invasive measurements and expensive medical costs. Numerous experimental and simulation methods have been developed to address this deficiency to achieve noninvasive detection of hemodynamics. Two commonly utilized techniques are the representative particle image velocimetry (PIV) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD).

Etiology, Pathogenesis and Pathophysiology of Aortic Aneurysms and Aneurysm Rupture
This book considers mainly etiology, pathogenesis, and pathophysiology of aortic aneurysms (AA) and aneurysm rupture and addresses anyone engaged in treatment and prevention of AA. Multiple factors are implicated in AA pathogenesis, and are outlined here in detail by a team of specialist researchers. Initial pathological events in AA involve recruitment and infiltration of leukocytes into the aortic adventitia and media, which are associated with the production of inflammatory cytokines, chemokine, and reactive oxygen species. AA development is characterized by elastin fragmentation. As the aorta dilates due to loss of elastin and attenuation of the media, the arterial wall thickens as a result of remodeling. Collagen synthesis increases during the early stages of aneurysm formation, suggesting a repair process, but resulting in a less distensible vessel. Proteases identified in excess in AA and other aortic diseases include matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), cathepsins, chymase and others. The elucidation of these issues will identify new targets for prophylactic and therapeutic intervention.
