Blood flow study after flow diverter for brain aneurysm
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study uses detailed 3D X-rays and ultrasound to understand how blood flows through a mesh tube (flow diverter) placed in a brain aneurysm. It may help doctors predict and prevent narrowing inside the tube.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older and not pregnant (if female).
- You have a brain aneurysm that was treated with a flow diverter (a mesh tube).
- You had a special X-ray (DSA) at least 1 month after the procedure to check the aneurysm.
- Your aneurysm is not caused by injury, infection, or other conditions like a tangle of blood vessels (AVM).
- You haven't had surgery or other procedures for this same aneurysm before.
- Your aneurysm is in a part of the brain that can be seen with a special ultrasound (TCCD).

This trial compares a flow diverter device to standard endovascular treatment for unruptured wide-neck brain aneurysms at a bifurcation. If you have this type of aneurysm, this study may help determine which treatment works better.
This study compares two ways to treat a type of brain aneurysm (a weak spot in a blood vessel) that has not burst. It looks at early problems after using a flow diverter or stent-assisted coiling, to see which might be safer or more effective.
This trial tests a flow diverter device (a small mesh tube) to treat a type of brain aneurysm that does not have a distinct neck. The goal is to see if it is safe and effective for people who are not good candidates for surgery or other treatments.
This trial tests a flow-diverter stent (a small mesh tube) to treat brain aneurysms that are hard to close with standard methods. It may help if you have a wide-neck or other complex aneurysm that hasn't burst.
This trial tests a special metal mesh tube, called a flow diverter, to treat unruptured brain aneurysms. The goal is to see how safe and effective it is for preventing strokes.
This trial tests a flow-diverting stent for treating certain brain aneurysms located in distal parts of the brain's arteries. It’s for people who have already received this stent and are between 18 and 80 years old.
