3D MRI-based multicomponent FSI models for atherosclerotic plaques

TL;DR: The authors' results indicate that large lipid pools and thin plaque caps are associated with both extreme maximum (stretch) and minimum (compression when negative) stress/strain levels, which may lead to artery fatigue and possible plaque rupture.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sites of Rupture in Human Atherosclerotic Carotid Plaques Are Associated With High Structural Stresses An In Vivo MRI-Based 3D Fluid-Structure Interaction Study

TL;DR: Plaques with prior ruptures are associated with higher critical stress conditions, both at ulcer sites and when compared with nonruptured plaques, and plaque stress analysis may provide additional stress indicators helpful for image-based plaque vulnerability assessment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expert recommendations on the assessment of wall shear stress in human coronary arteries: existing methodologies, technical considerations, and clinical applications

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a method to solve the problem of the problem: this paper ] of "uniformity" of the distribution of data points in the data set.
Journal ArticleDOI

Local maximal stress hypothesis and computational plaque vulnerability index for atherosclerotic plaque assessment.

TL;DR: The initial results based on 34 2D MRI slices from 14 human coronary plaque samples indicate that CPVI plaque assessment has an 85% agreement rate (91% if the square root of stress values is used) with assessment given by histopathological analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of a Lipid Pool on Stress/Strain Distributions in Stenotic Arteries: 3-D Fluid-Structure Interactions (FSI) Models

TL;DR: The authors' results indicate that critical plaque stress/strain conditions are affected considerably by stenosis severity, eccentricity, lipid pool size, shape and position, plaque cap thickness, axial stretch, pressure, and fluid-structure interactions, and may be used for possible plaque rupture predictions.
