A Computational Model to Assess Poststenting Wall Stresses Dependence on Plaque Structure and Stenosis Severity in Coronary Artery
Figure 4
(a) Wall shear stress distribution at the luminal side of the plaque surface for 40%, 60%, and 80% stenosed coronary arteries with medium thickness of fibrous cap. Deformed wall structure and blood flow velocity represented by streamlines in (b) 40% and (c) 80% stenoses.
