ABSTRACT
Developing new capabilities to predict the risk of intracranial aneurysm rupture and to improve treatment outcomes in the follow-up of endovascular repair is of tremendous medical and societal interest, both to support decision-making and assessment of treatment options by medical doctors, and to improve the life quality and expectancy of patients. This study aims at identifying and characterizing novel flow-deviator stent devices through a high-fidelity computational framework that combines state-of-the-art numerical methods to accurately describe the mechanical exchanges between the blood flow, the aneurysm, and the flow-deviator and deep reinforcement learning algorithms to identify a new stent concepts enabling patient-specific treatment via accurate adjustment of the functional parameters in the implanted state.
