A Novel Patient-Specific Computational Fluid Dynamics Study of the Activation of Primary Collateral Pathways in the Circle of Willis During Vasospasm
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The Circle of Willis (CoW) is a redundant network of blood vessels that perfuses the brain. The ringlike anatomy mitigates the negative effects of stroke by activating collateral pathways that help maintain physiological ...
Modeling the Mechanical Microenvironment of Coiled Cerebral Aneurysms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Successful occlusion of cerebral aneurysms using coil embolization is contingent upon stable thrombus formation, and the quality of the thrombus depends upon the biomechanical environment. The goal of this study was to ...
