The brain vasculature is a complex flow network with a large range of velocities and patient anatomy, and interest in quantitative brain imaging biomarkers is growing. 4D Flow is used in a variety of neurovascular applications to quantify the impact of disease on local hemodynamics and flow distributions throughout the whole brain.
