Abstract:Coronary artery blood flow is influenced by various factors including vessel geometry, hemodynamic conditions, timing in the cardiac cycle, and rheological conditions. Multiple patterns of disturbed coronary flow may occur when blood flow separates from the laminar plane, associated with inefficient blood transit, and pathological processes modulated by the vascular endothelium in response to abnormal wall shear stress. Current simulation techniques, including computational fluid dynamics and fluid–structure i… Show more
