Abstract

Purpose Fluid shear stress was thought to lead to atherosclerotic plaque progression, but such measurement procedures are often invasive. The goal of the present study is to address the biomechanical pathways of atherosclerosis progression and regression with our non-invasive MRI methods and a 3D fluid-structure interaction (FSI) model. The study was performed in a large animal atherosclerotic model.
