Characteristics of Wall Shear Stress and Pressure of Intracranial Atherosclerosis Analyzed by a Computational Fluid Dynamics Model: A Pilot Study
Background: Although wall shear stress (WSS) and pressure play important roles in plaque vulnerability, characteristics of the two indices in intracranial atherosclerosis (ICAS) have not been fully investigated yet. This study aimed to elucidate this issue by means of establishing a non-invasive com...
