Abstract

Cerebrovascular abnormalities are extremely complex, due to the multitude of factors acting simultaneously on cerebral hemodynamics. Cerebral Arterio Venous Malformation (CAVM) hemodynamic in one of the vascular abnormality condition results changes in the flow and pressure level in blood vessels. This can cause rupture or decreased blood supply to the tissue through capillary causing infarct. Measuring flow and pressure without intervention along the vessel is big challenge due to occlusion, bending and thinning of the vessel in Arteriovenous Malformation patients. In this paper, we proposed a lumped model for the Vessels Deformation in CAVM Structures that will help clinicians to find the pressure and velocity measurements non-invasively.
