Static and dynamic analysis of cerebral blood flow in fifty-six large arterial vessel networks.
Objective.The cerebral vasculature is formed of an intricate network of blood vessels over many different length scales. Changes in their structure and connection are implicated in multiple cerebrovascular and neurological disorders. In this study, we present a novel approach to the quantitative analysis of the cerebral macrovasculature using computational and mathematical tools in a large dataset.Approach.We analysed a publicly available vessel dataset from a cohort of 56 (32/24F/M) healthy subjects. This dataset includes digital reconstructions of human brain macrovasculatures. We then propose a new mathematical model to compute blood flow dynamics and pressure distributions within these 56-representative cerebral macrovasculatures and quantify the results across this cohort.Main results.Statistical analysis showed that the steady state level of cerebrovascular resistance (CVR) gradually increases with age in both men and women. These age-related changes in CVR are in good agreement with previously reported values. All subjects were found to have only small phase angles (<6°) between blood pressure and blood flow at the cardiac frequency.Significance.These results showed that the dynamic component of blood flow adds very little phase shift at the cardiac frequency, which implies that the cerebral macrocirculation can be regarded as close to steady state in its behaviour, at least in healthy populations, irrespective of age or sex. This implies that the phase shift observed in measurements of blood flow in cerebral vessels is caused by behaviour further down the vascular bed. This behaviour is important for future statistical models of the dynamic maintenance of oxygen and nutrient supply to the brain.
