Correlation between quantitative analysis of wall shear stress and intima-media thickness in atherosclerosis development in carotid arteries

BACKGROUND: This paper presents quantitative analysis of blood flow shear stress by measuring the carotid arterial wall shear stress (WSS) and the intima-media thickness (IMT) of experimental rabbits fed with high-fat feedstuff on a weekly basis in order to cause atherosclerosis. METHODS: This study...
