Computed Modelling of Bloodflow Hemodynamic in Pathological Tortuosity of Internal Carotid Arteries

The literature review presents scientific materials on the computational modelling of hemoand hydrodynamics of blood flow in cases of pathologically tortuosity of carotid arteries, as well as in atherosclerotic and aneurysmal damage of the artery wall. A literature review of different articles about methods of computed modelling of the blood flow is conducted. Following a systematic analysis of scientific articles by Russian and foreign authors, key parameters can be identified for use in computed modelling of blood flow in patients with pathological tortuosity of the internal carotid arteries. The leading numerical indicator of wall shear stress (WSS) and blood flow velocity metrics are assessed and used for further modelling, prognosis and determination of indications for surgical treatment, tactics of the operating surgeon, likelihood of relapses and, frequency of complications.
