Temporal variations of wall shear stress parameters in intracranial aneurysms--importance of patient-specific inflow waveforms for CFD calculations.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Z-L response (ZLR) has been suggested to a new electromyographic (EMG) potential recorded from the facial muscle of patient with hemifacial spasm (HFS) during microvascular decompression (MVD). Although ZLR has been suggested to be useful, experience of ZLR monitoring is limited and its significance during M...
