High Structural Stress and Presence of Intraluminal Thrombus Predict Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (18)F-FDG Uptake: Insights From Biomechanics

BACKGROUND—: Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) wall inflammation and mechanical structural stress may influence AAA expansion and lead to rupture. We hypothesized a positive correlation between structural stress and fluorine-18-labeled 2-deoxy-2-fluoro-d-glucose ((18)F-FDG) positron emission tomograph...
