Intracoronary Cavitation as a Cause of Plaque Rupture and Thrombosis Propagation in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction: A Computational Study

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Significant rather than moderate coronary artery stenosis has been postulated to be the main substrate of plaque rupture in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). We evaluate if cavitation could influence the coronary artery plaque rupture contributing to the progression of th...
