Abstract :
Intact method for flow analysis in a hemo-dialyzer is highly desired for the design of hemo-dialyzer or in the ongoing hemodialysis process. MRI and CT imaging technologies have been widely used as tools for tissue, bone, and cancerous clinical analysis etc. In this paper, CT imaging technology is adopted to describe flow pattern within a hemo-dialyzer. And then, an intact image analysis method trying to measure blood flow rate is proposed.
