Cerebrovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis and stroke remain a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. A common feature of these diseases is vascular stenosis, i.e., the narrowing of ...

To simulate blood flow inside brain aneurysms, a computational method that combines 4D flow MRI, computational fluid dynamics and data assimilation has been developed. Brain aneurysms, also known as ...

Researchers from Science Tokyo develop a new computational method that combines 4D MRI, CFD, and DA for faster and realistic blood flow analysis in brain aneurysms. To simulate blood flow inside brain ...

For people with advanced heart failure, left ventricular assist devices, or LVADs, can be a literal lifesaver. The implantable devices, which improve blood flow throughout the body, are often the last ...

Stripe patterns are commonly seen in nature—for instance, birds and fish move in coordinated flocks and schools, fingerprints ...

Researchers show that stripe patterns which appear when red blood cells are separated in a centrifuge are primarily caused by ...
