Geometrical Modelling of the Fibre Organization in the Human Left Ventricle

Résumé

The aim of the present study is to check, by means of elementary mathematical tools, a conjecture according to which myocardial fibres are geodesic curves running on some surfaces. This conjecture was first stated and experimentally checked by Streeter (1979) for the equatorial part of the left ventricle free wall. Quantitative polarized light microscopy provides measurements on fibre orientation that could lead to evidence that the conjecture remains true for the whole of the left ventricle. Study of the right ventricle is under progress.
