Machine Learning-Based Reduced-Order Prediction of Rupture-Related Hemodynamics in Cerebral Aneurysms with Surface Blebs: A Pilot Study.

Cerebral aneurysm rupture is strongly associated with localized hemodynamic abnormalities, particularly in aneurysms containing surface blebs that represent structurally weakened regions of the vessel wall. Although computational fluid dynamics (CFD) provides detailed insight into aneurysm hemodynamics, its high computational cost limits its application in rapid patient-specific risk assessment. T...
