Influences of External Pressure on Flow and Deformation in Arterial Stenosis Model

High-grade stenoses can limit blood flow and produce conditions in which an artery may collapse. The resultant compression may be important in the development of atherosclerotic plaque fracture and subsequent thrombosis or distal embolization. We have developed stenosis models made of polyvinyl alco...
