      Effect of head posture on the healthy human carotid bifurcation hemodynamics 

      Papaharilaou, Yannis; Aristokleous, Nicolas; Seimenis, Ioannis; Khozeymeh, M. I.; Georgiou, Georgios C.; Brott, B. C.; Eracleous, Eleni A.; Anayiotos, Andreas S. (2013)
      Head and neck postures may cause morphology changes to the geometry of the carotid bifurcation (CB) that alter the low and oscillating wall shear stress (WSS) regions previously reported as important in the development of ...

      The Effect of Head Rotation on the Geometry and Hemodynamics of Healthy Vertebral Arteries 

      Aristokleous, Nicolas; Seimenis, Ioannis; Georgiou, Georgios C.; Nicolaïdes, Andrew N.; Anayiotos, Andreas S. (2015)
      The geometric and hemodynamic characteristics of the left and right vertebral arteries (LVA, RVA) of six healthy volunteers were investigated for the supine (S) and the prone position (P) a common sleeping posture with ...

      Effect of posture change on the geometric features of the healthy carotid bifurcation 

      Aristokleous, Nicolas; Seimenis, Ioannis; Papaharilaou, Yannis; Georgiou, Georgios C.; Brott, B. C.; Anayiotos, Andreas S. (2009)
      Segmented cross sectional MRI images were used to construct 3D virtual models of the carotid bifurcation in 5 healthy volunteers. Geometric features such as bifurcation angle, planarity angle, asymmetry angle tortuosity ...

      Effect of posture change on the geometric features of the healthy carotid bifurcation 

      Aristokleous, Nicolas; Seimenis, Ioannis; Papaharilaou, Yannis; Georgiou, Georgios C.; Brott, B. C.; Eracleous, Eleni A.; Anayiotos, Andreas S. (2011)
      Segmented cross-sectional MRI images were used to construct 3-D virtual models of the carotid bifurcation in ten healthy volunteers. Geometric features, such as bifurcation angle, internal carotid artery (ICA) angle, ...

      Head posture influences the geometric and hemodynamic features on the healthy human carotid bifurcation 

      Aristokleous, Nicolas; Seimenis, Ioannis; Papaharilaou, Yannis; Khozeymeh, M. I.; Georgiou, Georgios C.; Brott, B. C.; Anayiotos, Andreas S. (2012)
      Atherosclerosis is the third leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the Western world. Low and oscillating wall shear stress (WSS) regions have been previously reported as parameters that correlate with the development ...

      Impact of head rotation on the individualized common carotid flow and carotid bifurcation hemodynamics 

      Aristokleous, Nicolas; Seimenis, Ioannis; Georgiou, Georgios C.; Papaharilaou, Yannis; Brott, B. C.; Nicolaïdes, Andrew N.; Anayiotos, Andreas S. (2014)
      This paper aims at evaluating the changes that head rotation poses on morphological and flow characteristics of the carotid bifurcation (CB) and on the distribution of parameters that are regarded as important in atherosclerosis ...

      The influence of oxygen concentration on the rheological properties and flow of whole human blood 

      Valant, A. Z.; Ziberna, L.; Papaharilaou, Yannis; Anayiotos, Andreas S.; Georgiou, Georgios C. (2016)
      Variations in blood oxygen concentrations are not only part of the normal physiology but they may also indicate various pathological conditions. In the present work, we examined the influence of oxygen concentration on the ...
