Abstract：Vascular lesions of the head and neck are one of the major contributing factors to serious health issues such as stroke,with pathological progression closely linked to hemodynamic abnormalities.Computational fluid dynamics(CFD),through patient-specific three-dimensional vascular modeling,enables the quantitative analysis of geometric parameters and hemodynamic characteristics.This approach elucidates the pathophysiological mechanisms of carotid atherosclerosis and intracranial aneurysms,playing a crucial role in predicting disease progression and guiding therapeutic strategies.This review systematically summarizes recent advancements in CFD applications for cerebrovascular pathologies of the head and neck region.
