#CarotidArteryDisease #CAD
#CAD causes ~ 10-20% of #strokes
Atherosclerosis occurs most frequently at carotid #bifurcation, an area of low vessel-wall shear stress and oscillatory/turbulent blood flow

Wall shear stress (#WSS) is the frictional force of blood exerted tangential to endothelial surface of vessel wall & expressed in variety of units (1Pa=1N/m2=10 dynes/cm2)
It is derived from
• luminal geometry
• flow rate
• blood viscosity
• near wall velocity values

In vivo WSS calculations are derived from computational fluid dynamic (#CFD) simulations created from reconstructed 3D vessel geometries (from biplane angio/IVUS/OCT/CT/MR) combined with patient-specific pulsatile inlet/outlet velocity values (Doppler wire or other methods)
