Computational study on phase lag of arterial-wall motion for assessment of plaque vulnerability
—
by
Arterial wall viscoelasticity is likely to be a good diagnostic indicator of vascular disease, but only a few studies on the assessment of wall viscosity have been performed. Artery phantoms are manufactured using polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) to simulate the viscoelastic characteristics of the artery wall, which depends on the wall tissue composition and progression of atherosclerosis.…
