Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) for 4D hemodynamics prediction: An investigation of optimal framework based on vascular morphology
Abstract
Hemodynamic parameters are of great significance in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. However, noninvasive, real-time and accurate acquisition of hemodynamics remains a challenge for current invasive detection and simulation algorithms. Here, we integrate computational fluid dynamics with our customized analysis framework based on a multi-attribute point cloud dataset and physics-informed neural networks (PINNs)-aided deep learning modules. This combination is implemented by our workflow that generates flow field datasets within two types of patient personalized models - aorta with fine coronary branches and abdominal aorta. Deep learning modules with or without an antecedent hierarchical structure model the flow field development and complete the mapping from spatial and temporal dimensions to 4D hemodynamics. 88,000 cases on 4 randomized partitions in 16 controlled trials reveal the hemodynamic landscape of spatio-temporal anisotropy within two types of personalized models, which demonstrates the effectiveness of PINN in predicting the space-time behavior of flow fields and gives the optimal deep learning framework for different blood vessels in terms of balancing the training cost and accuracy dimensions. The proposed framework shows intentional performance in computational cost, accuracy and visualization compared to currently prevalent methods, and has the potential for generalization to model flow fields and corresponding clinical metrics…
