• Us<strong>in</strong>g dynamic MRI imag<strong>in</strong>g, create a 3D computational<br />
model of the airway<br />
– Apply Computational Fluid Dynamics model<strong>in</strong>g (CFD)<br />
– Apply Flow Structure Interaction model<strong>in</strong>g (FSI)<br />
• Evaluate the flow of air through the model to determ<strong>in</strong>e<br />
major site of obstruction<br />
• Perform virtual surgery on the model and evaluate how<br />
this changes air flow<br />
• Use the model to plan and to predict surgical outcomes
