  1. Abstract There is a growing research interest in quantifying blood flow distribution for the entire cerebral circulation to sharpen diagnosis and improve treatment options for cerebrovascular disease of individual patients. We present a methodology to reconstruct subject‐specific cerebral blood flow patterns in accordance with physiological and fluid mechanical principles and optimally informed byin vivoneuroimage data of cerebrovascular anatomy and arterial blood flow rates. We propose an inverse problem to infer blood flow distribution across the visible portion of the arterial network that best matches subject‐specific anatomy and a given set of volumetric flow measurements. The optimization technique also mitigates the effect of uncertainties by reconciling incomplete flow data and by dissipating unavoidable acquisition errors associated with medical imaging data.
