Gipsy Urrutia

Unpuzzling cardiac damage by exercise imaging and biomechanical modeling

The main goal consists of the development of an imaging-modeling-based technology to measure local changes in ventricular tissue properties during exercise. This type of research is expected to support the clinical decision to perform AVR (aortic valve replacement) before irreversible cardiac damage occurs.

This project is applied for by Prof. Dr. Cristobal Bertoglio (FSE) and Dr. Tineke Willems (UMCG).

Project start: December 2023
