Abstract

The present disclosure describes a system and a method for producing patient-specific small diameter vascular grafts (SDVG) for coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. In some embodiments, the method for producing SDVGs includes non-invasive quantification of patient-specific coronary and vascular physiology by applying computational fluid dynamics (CFD), rapid prototyping, and in vitro techniques to medical images and coupling the quantified patient-specific coronary and vascular physiology from the CFD to computational fluid-structure interactions and SDVG structural factors to design a patient-specific SDVG.
