Mechanical Assessment in Atherosclerosis Based on Photoacoustic Viscoelasticity Imaging

Early identification of vulnerable plaques is a major challenge in diagnosis and assessment of atherosclerosis. In atherosclerotic plaque development, the proportion change in components caused plaque mechanical property change and induced plaque rupture. In this paper, a photoacoustic viscoelastici...
