Fig. 4

Hemodynamic characteristics of aneurysmal initiation and growth. In the region of aneurysmal initiation (A–C), high flow impingement impacted the basilar tip vessel wall continuously (arrow in B). The WSS distribution showed a local maximum at the apex of the initiation process of the aneurysmal formation (arrow in C). However, after aneurysmal growth (D, E), the region of aneurysmal growth showed a low WSS magnitude at peak systole (arrow in E)
