An MRI-based method to register patient-specific wall shear stress data to histology.

An MRI-based method to register patient-specific wall shear stress data to histology.

Wall shear stress (WSS), the frictional force exerted on endothelial cells by blood flow, is hypothesised to influence atherosclerotic plaque growth and composition. We developed a methodology for image registration of MR and histology images of advanced human carotid plaques and corresponding WSS d...
