The Correlation Between Wall Shear Stress and Plaque Composition in Advanced Human Carotid Atherosclerosis

The Correlation Between Wall Shear Stress and Plaque Composition in Advanced Human Carotid Atherosclerosis

The role of wall shear stress (WSS) in atherosclerotic plaque development is evident, but the relation between WSS and plaque composition in advanced atherosclerosis, potentially resulting in plaque destabilization, is a topic of discussion. Using our previously developed image registration pipeline...
