Fluid-dynamics and biological features of unstable plaques: different shear stress for different plaques
Abstract
Background The use of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) in acute coronary syndromes (ACS) allows recognizing ruptured fibrous cap (RFC) and intact fibrous cap (IFC) culprit lesions. The biological differences between them, as recently pointed out in translation studies, highlight different mechanisms for a similar clinical manifestation that might deserve different therapeutic approaches. The relationship between endothelial wall shear stress...
