Peak cap stress calculations in coronary atherosclerotic plaques with an incomplete necrotic core geometry

BACKGROUND: Stress calculations in atherosclerotic coronary vulnerable plaques can aid in predicting coronary cap rupture. In vivo plaque geometry and composition of coronary arteries can merely be obtained via intravascular imaging. Only optical driven imaging techniques have sufficient resolution...
