Abstract
When evaluating unruptured cerebral aneurysms, it is necessary to assess their risk of rupture and to compare them to the risks involved in their treatment. Simulations using the patient-specific (P-S) geometry of the aneurysm may help in a better planning of the treatment and in a consequent reduction of the associated risks.
