Background Intracranial aneurysms (IAs) are vascular dilations on cerebral vessels that
affect between 1%–5% of the general population, and can cause life-threatening intracranial …

To evaluate the relationship between wall shear stress (WSS) magnitude and cerebral
aneurysm rupture and provide new insight into the disparate computational fluid dynamics …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Hemodynamic factors are thought to play an important
role in the initiation, growth, and rupture of cerebral aneurysms. This report describes a pilot …

Dr Kallmes' provocative editorial “Point: CFD—Computa-tional Fluid Dynamics or
Confounding Factor Dissemination” raises a number of important questions about the status …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Recent high-resolution computational fluid dynamics
studies have uncovered the presence of laminar flow instabilities and possible transitional or …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Hemodynamic factors are thought to play an important
role in the initiation, growth, and rupture of cerebral aneurysms. This report describes a …

Background: Cerebral aneurysms carry a high risk of rupture and so present a major threat
to the patient's life. Accurate criteria for predicting aneurysm rupture are important for …

The objective of the study was to examine the correlations between intracranial aneurysm
morphology and wall shear stress (WSS) to identify reliable predictors of rupture risk …

Computational blood flow modeling in intracranial aneurysms (IAs) has enormous potential
for the assessment of highly resolved hemodynamics and derived wall stresses. This results …

Modeling of flow in intracranial aneurysms (IAs) requires flow information at the model
boundaries. In absence of patient-specific measurements, typical or modeled boundary …
