Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance, 2021 Background Serial cerebral angiographic imaging is necessary to ensure cerebral aneurysm occlusion after flow diverter placement. Time-of-flight (TOF)-magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) is used for this purpose due to its lack of radiation, contrast ...

Future Directions of Flow Diverter Therapy [PDF]
Neurosurgery, 2019 Abstract The treatment of intracranial aneurysms has undergone a few very significant paradigm shifts in its history. Needless to say, microsurgery and surgical clipping served as the initial basis for successful treatment of these lesions. The pursuit of endovascular therapy subsequently arose from the desire to reduce the invasiveness of ...

Failure of Flow Diverter Treatment of Intracranial Aneurysms Related to the Fetal-type Posterior Communicating Artery [PDF]
Neurointervention, 2015 PurposeThe pipeline embolization device (PED) is a flow diverter that has shown promise in the treatment of intracranial aneurysms. Close to one-fifth of aneurysms, however, fail to occlude after PED placement.

Limitations of Flow Diverters in Posterior Communicating Artery Aneurysms
Brain Sciences, 2021 Background: Treatment of intracranial aneurysms with flow diverters (FDs) showed promising results. However, a subset of patients treated for posterior communicating artery (PComA) aneurysms has variable occlusion rates.

Optimization of flow diverters for cerebral aneurysms [PDF]
Journal of Computational Science, 2012 Abstract A modern technique to treat cerebral aneurysms is to insert a flow diverter in the parent artery. In order to produce an optimal design of such devices, we consider a methodology combining simulated annealing optimization and lattice Boltzmann simulations.

Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 Background and Purpose: Delayed intraparenchymal hemorrhages (DIPHs) are one of the most serious complications of cerebral aneurysm treatment with flow diverters (FD), yet their causes are largely unknown.

Applied Sciences, 2020 Flow diverters (FDs) for the endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms are effective for sidewall aneurysms, but their use at a bifurcation is problematic because FDs only partially cover the aneurysm neck and impede flow into a daughter branch ...

Effect of Flow Diverter Porosity on Intraaneurysmal Blood Flow [PDF]
Clinical Neuroradiology, 2009 Growth and rupture, the two events that dominate the evolution of an intracranial aneurysm, are both dependent on intraaneurysmal flow. Decrease of intraaneurysmal flow is considered an attractive alternative for treating intracranial aneurysms by minimally invasive techniques.

Compacting a Single Flow Diverter versus Overlapping Flow Diverters for Intracranial Aneurysms: A Computational Study [PDF]
American Journal of Neuroradiology, 2017 Locally compacting the mesh of a flow diverter by a dynamic push-pull technique can accelerate intracranial aneurysm healing. We asked how this deployment strategy compares with overlapping 2 flow diverters for aneurysmal flow reduction.Using a high-fidelity virtual stent placement method, we simulated 3 flow-diverter strategies (single noncompacted, 2
