This outstanding resource provides a comprehensive guide to intracardiac blood flow phenomena and cardiac hemodynamics, including the developmental history, theoretical frameworks, computational fluid dynamics and practical applications for clinical cardiology, cardiac imaging and embryology. It is not a mere compilation of the most up-to-date scientific data and relevant concepts. Rather, it is an integrated educational means to developing pluridisciplinary background, knowledge and understanding. Such understanding allows an appreciation of the crucial, albeit heretofore generally unappreciated, importance of intracardiac blood flow phenomena in a host of multifaceted functional and morphogenetic cardiac adaptations.The book includes over 400 figures, which were prepared by the author and form a vital part of the pedagogy. It is organized in three parts.Part I, Fundamentals of Intracardiac Flows and Their MeasurementsPart II, Visualization of Intracardiac Blood Flows: Methodologies, Frameworks and Insights Part III contains an Appendix presenting technical aspects of the method of predetermined boundary motion, PBM, developed at Duke University by the author and his collaborators
