Abstract

We report the potentials and limitations of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis of patient-specific intracranial model with modification of proximal and distal length. Flow pattern does not seem to be affected by the length of proximal internal carotid artery. However, most of the flow was directed to the shorter distal part. Our study could serve as a technical reference to validating other tools and CFD results.
