The brain relies on real-time delivery of oxygen and nutrients through its microvasculature, which threads through neural ...

Reduced blood flow to the brain is thought to be a key factor in many forms of dementia, including Alzheimer's, and scientists have just identified a new mechanism regulating this flow, which may also ...

Researchers have discovered that increased blood flow leads to stiffness in the hippocampus, a region of the brain that plays important roles in learning and memory. The hippocampus is one of the ...

A new study suggests that dementia may be driven in part by faulty blood flow in the brain. Researchers found that losing a key lipid causes blood vessels to become overactive, disrupting circulation ...

Healthy brain function relies on a steady supply of blood. Disruptions in blood flow are linked to major neurological conditions like stroke, Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and traumatic brain injuries.

Researchers from Science Tokyo develop a new computational method that combines 4D MRI, CFD, and DA for faster and realistic blood flow analysis in brain aneurysms. To simulate blood flow inside brain ...
