Abstract

A substantial rate of mortality and morbidity is caused by Cerebral Aneurysms, saccular intracranial aneurysms or abnormal focal outpouchings of the cerebral arteries. There has been a momentous leap in the way such diseases are diagnosed and treated. The risk of ruptures of these balloons in the blood vessels has been researched extensively, and some very promising pathways have been employed successfully changing the approach of treatment. This chapter will talk about the modern point of view toward this neuroendovascular condition and some techniques for nanomaterials used in neuroendovascular therapeutic applications.
