Article Synopsis
  • This study investigates how different models of the circle of Willis (CoW) affect the analysis of blood flow in anterior communicating artery (AComA) aneurysms using computational fluid dynamics (CFD).
  • Five patient-specific CoW models were analyzed, revealing that the flow patterns and hemodynamic parameters depend significantly on whether a complete or half model is used.
  • Results showed that variations in vascular resistance in the A1 and A2 segments directly impact the flow patterns in AComA, with findings aiming to improve medical understanding and treatment of cerebral aneurysms.

Background: Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is widely used to calculate hemodynamic parameters that are known to influence cerebral aneurysms. However, the boundary conditions for CFD are chosen without any specific criteria. Our objective is to establish the recommendations for setting the analysis conditions for CFD analysis of the cerebral aneurysm.

The flow diversion effect of an intracranial stent is closely related to its metal coverage rate (MCR). In this study, the flow diversion effects of Enterprise and low-profile visualized intraluminal support (LVIS) stents are compared with those of a Pipeline flow diverter, focusing on the MCR change. Moreover, the changes in the flow diversion effect caused by the additional manipulations of overlapping and compaction are verified using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis.
