Variations in Surgical Anatomy of Common Carotid Artery: A Cadaveric Study [PDF]
International Journal of Anatomy Radiology and Surgery, 2021 Introduction: Carotid arterial system constitutes the principal blood supply of head, neck and brain. In various physiological mechanisms and pathological processes, carotid bifurcation is an important site both anatomically and surgically.

Computed poststenotic flow instabilities correlate phenotypically with vibrations measured using laser Doppler vibrometry : perspectives for a promising in vivo device for early detection of moderate and severe carotid stenosis [PDF]
, 2020 Early detection of asymptomatic carotid stenosis is crucial for treatment planning in the prevention of ischemic stroke. Auscultation, the current first-line screening methodology, comes with severe limitations that create urge for novel and robust ...

Persistent second cervical intersegmental artery diagnosed by MR angiography
Radiology Case Reports, 2019 Anastomosis between the external carotid and vertebral (VA) arteries is extremely rare. A well-recognized manifestation of such anastomosis is the Type 2 proatlantal artery, which commonly demonstrates anastomosis of the occipital artery with the VA at ...

Outflow boundary conditions for 3D simulations of non-periodic blood flow and pressure fields in deformable arteries [PDF]
, 2010 The simulation of blood flow and pressure in arteries requires outflow boundary conditions that incorporate models of downstream domains. We previously described a coupled multidomain method to couple analytical models of the downstream domains with 3D ...
