OBJECTIVE:: Flow diversion is a novel concept for intracranial aneurysm treatment. The
recently developed Enterprise Vascular Reconstruction Device (Codman Neurovascular …

Background: The use of stent-assisted coiling (SAC) has been shown to be a treatment
option for complex aneurysms. We reviewed systematically the immediate and mid-term …

Model validation metrics have been developed to provide a quantitative measure that
characterizes the agreement between predictions and observations. In engineering design …

Visual Computing for Medicine, Second Edition, offers cutting-edge visualization techniques
and their applications in medical diagnosis, education, and treatment. The book includes …

Object The development of self-expanding stents dedicated to intracranial use has
significantly widened the applicability of endovascular therapy to many intracranial …

Purpose: 5 self-expanding intracranial stents Neuroform (N), Wingspan (W), Solitaire (S),
Leo (+)(L), and Enterprise (E) were subjected to an in vitro examination and comparison of …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Flow-diverter stents are emerging for the endovascular
treatment of difficult-to-treat or otherwise untreatable cerebral aneurysms (wide-neck …

There is a general lack of quantitative understanding about how specific design features of
endovascular stents (struts and mesh design, porosity) affect the hemodynamics in …

Objective Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations of intracranial aneurysm
hemodynamics usually adopt the simplification of the Newtonian blood rheology model. A …

Intracranial aneurysms may be treated by flow diverters, alternatively to stents and coils
combination. Numerical simulation allows the assessment of the complex nature of …
