Flow visualization in realistic models is very important for the study of pathological vessel enlargements (aneurysms). Furthermore, flow visualization may help in treatment decisions. However, the most interesting parameter, the wall shear stress, is difficult to measure in vivo. This parameter can be provided by computational fluid dynamics. However, the numerical methods don't visualize the results as does of the dye washout method - a method often used in flow studies. This experimental method simulates the cine angiograms acquired during contrast agent injection used in medicine. In this paper we present the dye washout visualization of CFD results and compare these results with the conventional dye washout experiments in the same aneurysm model under steady flow conditions.
