Abstract
In recent years, the tendencies to use computer simulations as tools for a medical treatment and diagnosis have been growing. In each human-body, there is a complex relation between blood flow and the blood vessel wall, which is slightly different for each individual. Thus the entire simulation, especially grid generation, needs a lot of time and advanced knowledge. Therefore, we have difficulty to use the simulation for real-time medical tool. As tool capable of reducing the time and the trouble required for making a grid, we have developed blood flow and blood vessel interaction simulation system, which directly uses images from medical diagnosis instruments for constructing a computational grid. In this paper, we present an outline of the system, some ideas, and give some examples the behavior of blood flow and blood vessel interaction.
