Angiography-Based Computational Modeling for In Vivo Assessment of Endothelial Dynamic Strain in Coronary Arteries with De Novo Lesions: Comparison of Treatment Effects of Drug-Coated Balloons Between Small and Large Arteries

Angiography-Based Computational ModelingAnnouncing a new article publication for Cardiovascular Innovations and Applications journal. Acute morphological changes in de novo coronary lesions after drug-coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty can affect endothelial mechanics and consequently clinical outcomes.

Angiography-based computational modeling has been validated to assess endothelial dynamic strain (EDS) in coronary arteries in vivo. The EDS was calculated on the basis of pre- and post-DCB angiography. Parameters of quantitative coronary angiography and EDS were quantified at cross-sections in the treated segments. A total of 336 and 348 lesion cross-sections were included in the small/large vessel groups, respectively. (more…)
