Hemodynamic Features in Stenosed Coronary Arteries: CFD Analysis Based on Histological Images

Histological images from the longitudinal section of four diseased coronary arteries were used, for the first time, to study the pulsatile blood flow distribution within the lumen of the arteries by means of computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Results indicate a strong dependence of the hemodynamics...
