Abstract
The filtration of arterial, venous, and capillary blood, and liquor is investigated using a multiphase poroelastic model for brain matter based on medical data. The model can be used to describe the healthy brain, the brain with hydrocephalus, and the transition between them due to a change in model parameters.
