Brain solute transport is more rapid in periarterial than perivenous spaces

Abstract Fluid flow in perivascular spaces is recognized as a key component underlying brain transport and clearance. An important open question is how and to what extent differences in vessel type or geometry affect perivascular fluid flow and transport. Using computational modelling in both ideali...

description Abstract Fluid flow in perivascular spaces is recognized as a key component underlying brain transport and clearance.

Our findings demonstrate that differences in geometry between arterial and venous pial perivascular spaces (PVSs) lead to higher net CSF flow, more rapid tracer transport and earlier arrival times of injected tracers in periarterial spaces compared to perivenous spaces.
