Full pipeline to build a 3D cardiac computational model aimed at biophysical simulation. Summarised flowchart showing the main stages of the construction of a 3D cardiac model aimed at biophysical simulation: 3D cardiac geometry generation, meshing, CCS generation, myocardial structure generation, biophysical modelling (cardiac EP and biomechanics) and cardiac pathology modelling. Lines and arrows depict the relationships between the different stages by means of partial results (grey boxes) and coupling steps (yellow boxes). For pathology modelling, the diagram shows the different types (orange boxes) and subtypes (brown boxes) of cardiac pathology that can be included in a cardiac computational model and the stage in which each type of pathology must be taken into account.
