Abstract

AbstractA benchmark for the comparison of MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) measurements and CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulations for blood flow in intracranial aneurysms is presented. The benchmark setting is designed to allow for CFD simulations that are completely independent of the MRI measurements. This facilitates a fair comparison of both methods. Furthermore, results showing the good agreement of MRI and CFD are presented.

Highlights

  • The simulation of hemodynamics inside intracranial aneurysms with the help of CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) solvers is of special interest to the medical community as it can contribute to the personalized and predictive diagnosis

  • The comparison of MRI measurements with CFD simulations should further the understanding of both methods in terms of their accuracy, reliability, and drawbacks

  • We introduce a benchmark problem that allows for CFD simulations that are independent of MRI measurements

Summary

Introduction

The simulation of hemodynamics inside intracranial aneurysms with the help of CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) solvers is of special interest to the medical community as it can contribute to the personalized and predictive diagnosis. A thorough understanding of the employed tools, e.g., MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) measurements and CFD simulations, is necessary. The comparison of MRI measurements with CFD simulations should further the understanding of both methods in terms of their accuracy, reliability, and drawbacks. We introduce a benchmark problem that allows for CFD simulations that are independent of MRI measurements. We present a brief comparison of CFD simulation results and MRI measurements for this benchmark problem. For further results highlighting the advantage of CFD simulations over noisy MRI measurements, see [3]
