Hemodynamic Analysis of VenaTech Convertible Vena Cava Filter Using Computational Fluid Dynamics

The VenaTech convertible filter (VTCF) has been widely used as an inferior vena cava (IVC) filter to prevent fatal pulmonary embolism in patients. However, its hemodynamics that greatly affect the filter efficacy and IVC patency are still unclear. This paper uses computational fluid dynamics with th...
