A framework for local mechanical characterization of atherosclerotic plaques: combination of ultrasound displacement imaging and inverse finite element analysis

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Ali C. Akyildiz from the Medicine, Radboud University Medical Center, Nijmegen, The Netherlands have published the article: A Framework for Local Mechanical Characterization of Atherosclerotic Plaques: Combination of Ultrasound Displacement Imaging and Inverse Finite Element Analysis, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
• what: The study focused on in_vivo applications to determine the material properties for small incremental strain values, and the shape that individual plaque components could adopt to was restricted. In this study the feasibility of a novel hybrid framework for mechanical characterization of atherosclerotic plaques based on ex vivo inflation tests is demonstrated. The . . .
