Numerical investigation of carotid stenosis in three-dimensional aortic-cerebral vasculature: pulsatility index, resistive index, time to peak velocity, and flow characteristics

Haemodynamic correlations among the pulsatility index (PI), resistive index (RI), time to peak velocity (TPV), and mean Reynolds number (ReMean) were numerically investigated during the progression of carotid stenosis (CS), a highly prevalent condition. Fifteen patient-specific CS cases were modeled...
