“…Many studies have used patient‐specific finite element (FE) models to calculate stresses and strains for possible rupture predictions in both aneurysms and atherosclerotic plaques. 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 These models are often derived from diagnostic images such as CT, 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 Ultrasound, 22 , 23 or MRI 24 , 25 and provide physiological data that can act as inputs for computational analysis. It has been suggested that accurately characterizing the stress and strain in patient‐specific models could lead to a more accurate diagnosis of vessel or plaque rupture vulnerability when compared to standard diagnostic measures.…”
