Dispersion as a waste-clearance mechanism in flow through penetrating perivascular spaces in the brain

Accumulation of metabolic wastes in the brain is correlated with several neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer’s disease. Waste transport and clearance occur via dispersion, the combined effect of diffusion and advection by flow of fluid. We examine the relative contributions of diffusion...
