Abstract:
There is a need to determine which atherosclerotic lesions will progress in the coronary vasculature to guide intervention before myocardial infarction occurs. This article outlines the biomechanical modeling of arteries from Optical Coherence Tomography using fluid-structure interaction techniques in a commercial finite element solver to help predict this progression.
