Intracranial aneurysms remain a major cause of neurological morbidity and mortality worldwide, where rupture risk is tightly coupled to local hemodynamics particularly wall shear stress and oscillatory shear index. Conventional…

Cerebral aneurysms are pathological dilations of intracranial arteries that can rupture with devastating consequences, including subarachnoid hemorrhage, stroke, and death. Accumulating evidence indicates that local hemodynamic forces play…

Typical approaches to patient-specific hemodynamic studies of cerebral aneurysms use image based computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and seek to statistically correlate parameters such as wall shear stress (WSS) and oscillatory shear index…

Computational fluid dynamics is intensively used to deepen the understanding of aneurysm growth and rupture in the attempt to support physicians during therapy planning. Numerous studies have assumed fully-rigid vessel walls in their…

This study investigates the influence of aneurysm evolution on hemodynamic characteristics within the sac region. Using computational fluid dynamics (CFD), blood flow through the parent vessel and aneurysm sac was analyzed to assess the…

Aortic aneurysm disease ranks consistently in the top 20 causes of death in the U.S. population. Thoracic aortic aneurysm is manifested as an abnormal bulging of thoracic aortic wall and it is a leading cause of death in adults. From the…

Cerebral vasospasm, a prolonged constriction of cerebral arteries, is the first cause of morbidity and mortality for patients who survive hospitalisation after aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage. The recent finding that stent-retrievers…

Pulmonary embolism, the obstruction of a pulmonary artery by a blood clot, is one of the leading causes of acute cardiovascular syndrome. In clinical practice, therapeutic decisions after diagnosis via computed tomography pulmonary…

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a life-threatening condition characterized by the progressive dilation of the aorta, which can lead to rupture if undetected or untreated. Stress-based rupture risk estimation using computational…

Rupture of intracranial aneurysms results in severe subarachnoidal hemorrhage, which is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Neurointerventional occlusion of the aneurysm through coiling has evolved to a therapeutical standard. The…

Intrasaccular flow disruptors treat cerebral aneurysms by diverting the blood flow from the aneurysm sac. Residual flow into the sac after the intervention is a failure that could be due to the use of an undersized device, or to vascular…

Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) is an enlargement in the lower part of the main artery Aorta by 1.5 times its normal diameter. AAA can cause death if rupture occurs. Elective surgeries are recommended to prevent rupture based on geometrical…

An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a life-threatening condition characterized by the irreversible dilation of the lower aorta, usually detected incidentally during imaging for other health issues. Current clinical practice for managing…

The aorta is the body's largest arterial vessel, serving as the primary pathway for oxygenated blood within the systemic circulation. Aortic aneurysms consistently rank among the top twenty causes of mortality in the United States. Thoracic…

Pulmonary embolisms (PE) are known to be one of the leading causes for cardiac-related mortality. Due to inherent variabilities in how PE manifests and the cumbersome nature of manual diagnosis, there is growing interest in leveraging AI…

Cerebral aneurysms and arteriovenous malformations are life-threatening hemodynamic pathologies of the brain. While surgical intervention is often essential to prevent fatal outcomes, it carries significant risks both during the procedure…

Intracranial aneurysms (IAs) are serious cerebrovascular lesions found in approximately 5\% of the general population. Their rupture may lead to high mortality. Current methods for assessing IA risk focus on morphological and…

We hereby present a full synthetic model, able to mimic the various constituents of the cerebral vascular tree, including the cerebral arteries, bifurcations and intracranial aneurysms. This model intends to provide a substantial dataset of…
