Evaluation of Implanted Stent Occlusion Status Based on Neointimal Tissue Bioimpedance Simulations

Figure 13

Magnitude measurements using FEA in regular and irregular lumens inside a stent at 1 kHz. The regular lumen (red) corresponds to case 6 in Table 3. The irregular lumen is caused by (blue) muscle increment (stable plaque) and (black) fat tissue increment (vulnerable plaque).
