  • Title: [Intravascular Ultrasound-based Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulation of Arterial Vessel Wall Strain Distribution].
    Author: Sun Z, Liu C.
    Journal: Sheng Wu Yi Xue Gong Cheng Xue Za Zhi; 2015 Dec; 32(6):1244-8. PubMed ID: 27079095.
    Abstract:
    Quantitative measurement of strain distribution of arterial vessel walls due to pulsatile blood flow within the vascular lumen is valuable for evaluating the elasticity of arterial wall and predicting the evolution of plaques. The present paper shows that the three-dimensional (3D) strain distribution are estimated through uni-directional coupling for 3D vessel and blood models reconstructed from intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) images with the computational. fluid dynamics (CFD) numerical simulation technique. The morphology of vessel wall and plaques as well as strain distribution can be visually displayed with pseudo-color coding.
