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…
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…
The development and progression of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) are related to complex flow patterns and wall-shear-driven mechanobiological stimuli, yet the quantitative relationship between aneurysmal geometry and hemodynamics remains…
The basic mechanism driving aneurysm growth is unknown. Currently, clinical diagnosis of an aneurysm is mainly informed by retrospective tracking of its size and growth rate. However, aneurysms can rupture before reactive criteria are met…
Purpose. It has been reported clinically that rupture or dissections in thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAA) often occur due to hypertension which may be modelled with sudden increase of peripheral resistance, inducing acute changes of blood…
Objective: ascending aortic aneurysm growth prediction is still challenging in clinics. In this study, we evaluate and compare the ability of local and global shape features to predict ascending aortic aneurysm growth. Material and methods:…
Numerical simulations have been extensively used in the past two decades for the study of intracranial aneurysms (IAs), a dangerous disease that occurs in the arteries that reach the brain. They may affect up to 10 % of the world's…
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 and microaneurysms are abnormal vascular dilatations with high risk of rupture. An aneurysmal rupture could cause permanent disability and even death. Finding and treating aneurysms before their rupture is very difficult…
Rupture of aortic aneurysms is by far the most fatal heart disease, with a mortality rate exceeding 80%. There are no reliable clinical protocols to predict growth, dissection, and rupture because the fundamental physics driving aneurysm…
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…
Aneurysms are localized bulges of arteries, and they can rupture with fatal consequences. Complex mechanobiological factors preclude in vivo testing to assess the rupture risk of an aneurysm, and size based criteria are often used in…
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…
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a permanent and irreversible dilation of the lower region of the aorta. It is typically an asymptomatic condition that if left untreated can expand to the point of rupture. Mechanically-speaking, rupture…
Accurate prediction of aortic expansion in uncomplicated type B aortic dissection (TBAD) can help identify patients who may benefit from timely thoracic endovascular aortic repair. This study investigates associations between biomechanical…
Bicuspid aortic valve is the most common congenital heart defect, affecting 1-2% of the global population. Patients with bicuspid valves frequently develop dilation and aneurysms of the ascending aorta. Both hemodynamic and genetic factors…
Clinical decisions for unruptured intracranial aneurysms depend on detecting growth on follow-up magnetic resonance angiography (MRA). Growth is typically judged from manual 2D diameters on few slices, which vary across clinicians and…
The relationship between vascular morphology and hemodynamics is fundamental to understanding the natural history of cerebral aneurysms (CAs). While global geometric indices have been widely studied, the local interaction between luminal…
