Resumo(s)

Human virtual phantoms are being widely used to simulate and characterize the behavior of different organs, either in diagnosis stages but also to enable foreseeing the therapeutic effects obtained on a certain patient. In the present work a typical patient’s heart was simulated using XCAT2©, considering the possibility of a lesion and/or anatomical alteration being affecting the myocardium. These simulated images, were then used to carry out a set of parametric studies using Matlab©. Although performed in controlled sceneries, these studies are very important to understand and characterize the performance of the methodologies used, as well as to determine to what extent the relations between the perturbation introduced at the myocardium and the resulting simulated images can be considered conclusive.
