A Computational Model to Assess Poststenting Wall Stresses Dependence on Plaque Structure and Stenosis Severity in Coronary Artery
Figure 3
Wall shear stress distribution at the luminal side of the plaque surface with different magnitude of strut thickness (, 0.05, 0.025 mm) for (a) 40%, (b) 60%, (c) 80% stenosed arteries. The fibrous cap has the medium thickness.
