In-vitro steady and pulsatile flow studies in saccular aneurysm models using particle image velocimetry (PIV) : with effects of stents and springs

Rupture of the cerebrovascular aneurysm will result in brain haemorrhage which carries a very high morbidity. It is therefore important to understand the haemodynamic factors which may play a role in the formation, development and rupture of the cerebrovascular aneurysm. The factors may be derived f...
