Virtual stenting with simplex mesh and mechanical contact analysis for real-time planning of thoracic endovascular aortic repair

Conclusion: The novel algorithm provided fast real-time and accurate predictions of stent-graft deployment with luminal deformation tracking, thereby potentially informing individualized stenting planning and improving endovascular aortic repair outcomes. Large, multicenter studies are warranted to extend the algorithm validation and determine stress-induced wall deformation cutoff values for the risk stratification of particular complications.
