Collateral Flow at Circle of Willis In Healthy Condition

Experimental simulation of cerebrovascular system would be very beneficial tool to evaluate millions of human body cascade sequence. The Circle of Willis (CoW) recently named Cerebral Arterial Circle (CAC) is a main loop structure of cerebral circulatory system which positioned at the cranium base. In this research, we investigate cerebral artery flow pattern in cerebral arteries including afferent, Willisian, and efferent arteries of CAC emphasizing on communicating and connecting arteries which are main routes in CAC and as a risky sites when autoregulation is occurred in terminal parts of middle cerebral arteries (MCAs) by PMMA (Polymethyl methacrylate) chip and high quality camera which depict Sequential images. This novelty study analyze flow pattern in CAC that have been challenging subject area for many years which have investigated by scientists yet, because flow pattern in CAC indicate complication progression. This research tries to construct new platform in cerebral circulation analyzing method by reliable experimental in-vitro approach. The outcomes of this study demonstrate that communicating arteries especially anterior communicating artery (ACoA) is main artery in CAC flow distribution.
