Morphological and haemodynamic aspects of cerebral aneurysms.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Scientific research can offer the joy of discovery. For many graduating neurosurgeons, often, a seminar, class, or instructional module is their first and only formal exposure to the world of conducting research responsibly, to write down and report the results of such research. The pressure to publish scien...
