An inverse method for mechanical characterization of heterogeneous diseased arteries using intravascular imaging

Abstract The increasing prevalence of finite element (FE) simulations in the study of atherosclerosis has spawned numerous inverse FE methods for the mechanical characterization of diseased tissue in vivo. Current approaches are however limited to either homogenized or simplified material representa...
