Abstract
In this study, a moving boundary deformation model based on four-dimensional computed tomography angiography (4D-CTA) with high temporal resolution is constructed, and blood flow dynamics of cerebral aneurysms are investigated by numerical simulation. A realistic moving boundary deformation model of a cerebral aneurysm was constructed based on 4D-CTA in each phase. Four hemodynamic factors (wall shear stress [WSS], wall shear stress divergence [WSSD], oscillatory shear index [OSI], and residual residence time [RRT]) were obtained from numerical simulations, and these factors were evaluated in basilar artery aneurysms. Comparison of the rigid body condition and the moving boundary condition investigating the relationship between wall displacement and hemodynamic factors clarified that the spatial-averaged WSS and maximum WSSD considering only the aneurysmal dome has a large difference between conditions during the peak systole, and there were also significant differences in OSI and RRT.
