Histological verification of atherosclerosis due to bends and bifurcations in carotid arteries predicted by hemodynamic model

BACKGROUND: Tortuosity and bifurcations in carotid arteries alter the blood flow, causing atherosclerosis. OBJECTIVES: The aim of the present study is to analyze the effect of variant vascular anatomy in the cervical region on development of atherosclerosis by microanatomical examination. METHODS: T...
