Correlations of coronary plaque wall thickness with wall pressure and wall pressure gradient: a representative case study

BACKGROUND: There are two major hemodynamic stresses imposed at the blood arterial wall interface by flowing blood: the wall shear stress (WSS) acting tangentially to the wall, and the wall pressure (WP) acting normally to the wall. The role of flow wall shear stress in atherosclerosis progression h...
