Abstract Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has become an essential research tool to
investigate the physical, biophysical and pathophysiological processes leading to the …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The decision as to the treatment of incidental IAs is
complex. There are no certain quantitative methods that can be used to evaluate the risk of …

Objective Realistic, safe, and efficient modalities for simulation-based training are highly
warranted to enhance the quality of surgical education, and they should be incorporated in …

Gallbladder disease is one of the most spread pathologies in the world. Despite the number
of operations dealing with biliary surgery increases, the number of postoperative …

Compliant (flexible) structures play an important role in several biological flows including the
lungs, heart and arteries. Coronary heart disease is caused by a constriction in the artery …

This study experimentally and numerically investigated the effect of pulsatile flow of different
frequencies and outflow resistance on wall deformation in a lateral aneurysm. A method for …

The behavior of wall shear stress (WSS) was previously reported in a deformable aneurysm
model using fluid-structure interactions. However, these findings have not been validated. In …

Fluid–structure interaction (FSI) simulations using a patient-specific geometry are carried out
to investigate the influence the length of elastic parent artery and the position of constraints …

Providing suitable training for aspiring neurosurgeons is becoming more and more
problematic. The increasing popularity of the endovascular treatment of intracranial …

Cranial nerve palsy caused by aneurysmal compression has not been fully evaluated. The
main causes of symptoms are considered to be direct mechanical compression and …
