For cerebral aneurysms, the ostium, the area of inflow, is an important anatomic landmark, since it separates the pathological vessel deformation from the healthy parent vessel. A better understanding of the inflow ...

The qualitative exploration of near-wall hemodynamics in cerebral aneurysms provides important insights for risk assessment. For instance, a direct relation between complex flow patterns and aneurysm formation could be ...
