An important medical problem of the noninvasive treatment of brain aneurysm demands special attention. The main reason is that in many cases, it is necessary to have direct information about size, shape, and exact location of the aneurysm. To provide a medical specialist with such information, a Virtual Aneurysm (VA) system has been created. Problems of its realization and efficiency are discussed in this paper. A novel approach to the simulation and visualization in biomedical systems is suggested, to achieve higher efficiency of the simulation and visualization. It is called branching simulation.
