A patient-specific method for the evaluation of wall shear stress in human coronary arteries.
Atherosclerotic plaques form at specific sites of the arterial tree, an observation that has led to the "geometric risk factor" hypothesis for atherogenesis. It is accepted that the location of atherosclerotic plaques is correlated with sites subjected to low abnormal values of wall shear...

It is accepted that the location of atherosclerotic plaques is correlated with sites subjected to low abnormal values of wall shear stress (WSS), which is in turn determined by the specific geometry of the arterial segment.
