Wall shear stress (WSS) plays an important role in the formation, growth, and rupture of atherosclerotic plaques in arteries. This study measured WSS in diseased carotid artery phantoms with degrees of stenosis varying from 0 to 60% with both steady and ...

Atherosclerotic plaques within the coronary arteries can prevent blood from flowing to downstream tissues, causing coronary heart disease and a myocardial infarction over time. The degree of stenosis is an important reference point during percutaneous co...
