Abstract
Understanding the pulsing dynamics of tissue and fluids in the intracranial environment is an evolving research theme aimed at gaining new insights into brain physiology and disease progression. This article provides an overview of related research in magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound medical diagnostics and mathematical modelling of biological tissues and fluids. It highlights recent developments, illustrates current research goals and emphasizes the importance of collaboration between these fields.
