Abstract: One challenge for hepatic flow simulation is to divide the hepatic vasculature into individual Couinaud segments, and to simulate flow at both segmental and organ levels. We propose to integrate a segment simulation algorithm with the flow solver in a Constructive Constraint Optimisation (CCO) algorithm to address this problem. In this way blood flow simulations can be conducted for large segment-specific vasculatures as relevant to surgical procedures. In this short communication we outline the methods and present some preliminary results.
