Assessment of surface roughness and blood rheology on local coronary haemodynamics: a multi-scale computational fluid dynamics study

The surface roughness of the coronary artery is associated with the onset of atherosclerosis. The study applies, for the first time, the micro-scale variation of the artery surface to a 3D coronary model, investigating the impact on haemodynamic parameters which are indicators for atherosclerosis. T...
