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 ...

3D printed blood vessels on glass that mimic blood vessel anatomy and the fluid dynamics of blood flow could be an invaluable tool in studying the causes of stroke, new research from a University of ...

To simulate blood flow inside brain aneurysms, researchers from Japan have developed a computational method that combines 4D flow MRI, computational fluid dynamics, and data assimilation, which ...

The new focus on manned missions to the moon and Mars presents countless pressing challenges, including keeping humans alive ...

A computational model that could rapidly design a blood vessel network for any 3D-printed organ may take us a step closer to transplanting artificial livers, kidneys or hearts without the need for a ...

Researchers at Concordia have developed a high-fidelity CPR simulator that replicates human blood flow in reduced gravity, offering new insights into resuscitation challenges in space. Tests on ...

Engineers have developed a wearable ultrasound patch that can offer continuous, non-invasive monitoring of blood flow in the brain. The soft and stretchy patch can be comfortably worn on the temple to ...
