Hemodynamic predictions in the α and β pathways of the structured tree in the normotensive case and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) cases a and d. A: large vessel network with terminal vessels in obstructed (T1–T3, red) and unobstructed (T4–T6, blue) pathways. B: schematic of the structured tree (gray branches) and the α and β pathways (red and blue paths, respectively. C: mean pressure and flow predictions in the α and β pathways in terminal vessels T1–T3 as a function of radius. D: mean pressure and flow predictions in the α and β pathways in terminal vessels T4–T6 as a function of radius.
