Mayo Clinic researcher Lorenzo Rinaldo, M.D., Ph.D., studies the biological processes involved in the occlusion of aneurysms after endovascular treatment. He develops small animal models in which to deploy endovascular devices. The goal is to identify modifiable risk factors for endovascular treatment failure. Dr. Rinaldo also refines treatment selection strategies for moyamoya disease. In moyamoya disease, blood flow to the brain is decreased because of narrowed arteries. Dr. Rinaldo investigates whether measurements of intraoperative blood flow in both donor and recipient arteries during bypass surgery can predict success or failure of different treatment modalities.
Dr. Rinaldo's research improves endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms and reduces the need for retreatment. Regarding his research on moyamoya disease, the goal is to define objective criteria for treatment selection with the aim of individualizing surgical strategies based on disease characteristics. This increases the success of surgery and reduces risks as much as possible. His research on quality of life identifies people who are more likely to have poor quality of life after particular forms of aneurysm treatment. Dr. Rinaldo's research allows a more individualized approach to aneurysm treatment.
