Tissue prolapse and stresses in stented coronary arteries: A computer model for multi-layer atherosclerotic plaque
Tissue prolapse is studied computationally in stented coronary artery. Effects of plaque layers are revealed in the resulting tissue prolapse values. This can help in stent design and optimal choice of stent to prevent restenosis.
