BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Robust wall apposition for flow-diverter stents may be
important for endothelialization. Using a large series of experimental aneurysms treated with …

Background Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a high resolution intravascular imaging
method that allows visualization of flow diverter struts and the vessel wall. In this study …

Background Poor vessel wall apposition of flow diverter (FD) stents poses risks for stroke-
related complications when treating intracranial aneurysms, necessitating long-term …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Flow-diverter technology has proved to be a safe and
effective treatment for intracranial aneurysm based on the concept of flow diversion allowing …

Flow diverter malapposition has been described as a technical complication during
endovascular procedures and can be associated with, potentially delayed, life-threatening …

Introduction A remarkable curing rate has been achieved in the treatment of intracranial
intractable aneurysms by using flow-diverting stents (FDS). An appropriate metal coverage …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: FDs are new intracranial stents designed to occlude
aneurysms while preserving flow to jailed arterial branches. We tested this fundamental …

BACKGROUND It is assumed that high pore densities in flow diverters (FDs) are beneficial
for intracranial aneurysm (IA) healing. However, various animal studies are not conclusive …

Purpose Flow diverters (FDs) have led to spectacular results in otherwise untreatable
aneurysm cases, but complications can occur. There is a pressing need to study factors that …

Background Evaluation of flow diversion treatment of intracranial aneurysms is difficult
owing to lack of knowledge of the target hemodynamic environment. Objective To identify …
