An agentic and general platform to Segment, Reconstruct, Simulate
FlowLeap is Medlea’s next-generation simulation engine, designed to model and predict complex flow dynamics across a wide range of anatomical systems.
Unlike traditional simulators, FlowLeap is a modular, multiphysics simulation framework capable of representing blood, air, lymph, urinary excretion, and the propagation of drugs, contrast agents, or pathogens. A key technology for medical applications.
Multi-domain simulations with integrated device-human modeling
FlowLeap automatically extracts multiple organ systems, but its real strength lies in its ability to simulate the interaction between medical devices and the human body. This makes it a powerful tool not only for decision support but also for innovation in the medtech sector. Whether it is a catheter, an implant, an aerosol device, or a robotic procedure, FlowLeap simulates them in accurate, patient-specific environments under realistic physiological conditions.
What sets FlowLeap apart is its multiphysics foundation combined with support for dynamic and moving boundaries, essential to understand how devices and tissues co-evolve during use. Whether you are a clinician preparing for a procedure or a developer of implantable devices, FlowLeap optimizes device-human interactions safely and with unmatched realism.
Applications
In respiratory care, FlowLeap enables simulations of aerosol-based drug delivery systems, nebulizers, and smart inhalers. It models how particles generated by the device move through dynamic airway geometries, deposit in target regions, or are exhaled, accounting for flow rate, breathing cycle, airway resistance, and posture. It also supports simulations of airway management devices such as endotracheal tubes or bronchial blockers, showing how they alter flow patterns or increase regional stress, providing key data for optimizing ventilator settings and airway protection strategies.
In the cardiovascular field, FlowLeap can simulate the implantation of stents, grafts, and valves, assessing their effects on local flow dynamics, wall shear stress, and downstream perfusion. It can also evaluate risks of restenosis, thrombosis, or embolization by combining patient-specific anatomy with fluid dynamics and particle transport. The platform supports pre-procedural planning as well as virtual prototyping of new cardiovascular devices under varying flow, pressure, and anatomical conditions.
In renal and urological systems, FlowLeap can simulate the insertion of ureteral stents, catheters, or implants such as artificial sphincters. It models how these devices influence urinary dynamics, local pressure gradients, and the flow of particles or sediments. This capability extends to simulating scenarios such as stent encrustation, reflux prevention, or the impact of partial obstruction. Device design teams can use FlowLeap to iteratively test prototypes in realistic virtual anatomies, reducing reliance on animal models and physical mockups.
Anatomical reconstruction from imaging
FlowLeap includes a powerful imaging pipeline that transforms tomographic datasets, such as CT and MRI scans, into high-resolution, anatomically accurate 3D models. Using AI-enhanced detection, the platform automatically identifies and reconstructs airways, vascular structures, renal tracts, and other flow-relevant anatomical domains. The resulting models maintain detailed spatial fidelity, capturing both macrostructure and fine features critical for physiological simulations. This capability enables clinicians and researchers to simulate interventions based on patient-specific anatomy, supporting personalized decisions and predictive diagnostics.
Integration with CAD
FlowLeap is fully integrated with industry-standard CAD platforms, enabling the import, modification, and export of customized geometries within anatomical contexts. Medtech engineers and designers can insert medical devices such as stents, valves, catheters, or delivery systems into patient-specific models and examine how their geometry affects local flow and tissue interaction. Conversely, anatomical models can be exported to CAD environments for advanced geometric manipulation, structural analysis, or 3D printing.
A unified platform for clinical and engineering collaboration
By combining automated reconstruction and CAD compatibility, FlowLeap enables a unified workflow between clinical and engineering teams. Surgeons can visualize proposed device placements within real anatomy, while biomedical engineers can simulate dynamic mechanical responses under realistic physiological conditions. Whether the goal is to plan a procedure, validate a new device prototype, or assess performance under adverse scenarios, FlowLeap connects imaging, simulation, and design in a continuous collaborative cycle.
Simulate in the Cloud
Designed with scalability and accessibility in mind, FlowLeap runs in both cloud-based and on-premise computing environments, using GPU acceleration for real-time or batch simulations. Its API-oriented architecture supports integration with surgical planning tools, training simulators, and regulatory-compliant validation pipelines. With an intuitive visual interface and detailed output data analysis, including velocity fields, deposition maps, pressure gradients, and residence times, FlowLeap turns complex biomechanics into actionable data. More than a flow simulator, FlowLeap represents a leap forward in dynamic physiological modeling, patient-specific and system-level.
