  • Effects of intima stiffness and plaque morphology on peak cap stress (2011)Open access

    Authors:Akyildiz, A.C. (Ali); Speelman, L. (Lambert); Brummelen, van H. (Harald); Gutiérrez, M.A. (Miguel); Virmani, R. (Renu); Lugt, van der A. (Aad); Steen, van der A.F.W. (Ton); Wentzel, J.J. (Jolanda); Gijsen, F.J.H. (Frank)
    In:BioMedical Engineering OnLine, 10, 25 - 37. ISSN 1475-925x.

    Abstract:

    Background: Rupture of the cap of a vulnerable plaque present in a coronary vessel may cause myocardial infarction and death. Cap rupture occurs when the peak cap stress exceeds the cap strength. The mechanical stress within a cap depends on the plaque morphology and the material characteristics of

  • Small coronary calcifications are not detectable by 64-slice contrast enhanced computed tomography (2010)Open access

    Authors:Giessen, van der A. (Alina); Gijsen, F.J.H. (Frank); Wentzel, J.J. (Jolanda); Jairam, P.M. (Pushpa); Walsum, van T.W. (Theo); Neefjes, L. (Lisan); Mollet, N.R.A. (Nico); Niessen, W.J. (Wiro); Vosse, van de F.N. (Frans); Feyter, de P.J. (Pim); Steen, van der A.F.W. (Ton)
    In:International Journal of Cardiovascular Imaging, 27(1), 143 - 152. ISSN 1569-5794.

    Abstract:

    Recently, small calcifications have been associated with unstable plaques. Plaque calcifications are both in intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT) easily recognized. However, smaller calcifications might be missed on MSCT due to its lower resolution. Because it i

  • Strain distribution over plaques in human coronary arteries relates to shear stress (2008)

    Authors:Gijsen, F.J.H. (Frank); Wentzel, J.J. (Jolanda); Thury, A. (Attila); Mastik, F. (Frits); Schaar, J.A. (Johannes); Schuurbiers, J.C.H. (Johan); Slager, C.J. (Cornelis); Giessen, van der W.J. (Wim); Feyter, de P.J. (Pim); Steen, van der A.F.W. (Ton); Serruys, P.W.J.C. (Patrick)
    In:American Journal of Physiology - Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 295(4). ISSN 0363-6135.

    Abstract:

    Once plaques intrude into the lumen, the shear stress they are exposed to alters with hitherto unknown consequences for plaque composition. We investigated the relationship between shear stress and strain, a marker for plaque composition, in human coronary arteries. We imaged 31 plaques in coronary

  • Simulation of stent deployment in a realistic human coronary artery (2008)Open access

    Authors:Gijsen, F.J.H. (Frank); Migliavacca, F. (Francesco); Schievano, S. (Silvia); Socci, L. (Laura); Petrini, L. (Lorenza); Thury, A. (Attila); Wentzel, J.J. (Jolanda); Steen, van der A.F.W. (Ton); Serruys, P.W.J.C. (Patrick); Dubini, G. (Gabriele)
    In:BioMedical Engineering OnLine, 7. ISSN 1475-925x.

    Abstract:

    Background: The process of restenosis after a stenting procedure is related to local biomechanical environment. Arterial wall stresses caused by the interaction of the stent with the vascular wall and possibly stress induced stent strut fracture are two important parameters. The knowledge of these p

  • Rapamycin modulates the eNOS vs. shear stress relationship (2008)

    Authors:Cheng, K.L. (Caroline); Tempel, D. (Dennie); Oostlander, A. (Angela); Helderman, F.; Gijsen, F.J.H. (Frank); Wentzel, J.J. (Jolanda); Haperen, van R. (Rien); Haitsma, D.B.; Serruys, P.W.J.C. (Patrick); Steen, van der A.F.W. (Ton); Crom, de M.P.G. (Rini); Krams, R. (Rob)
    In:Cardiovascular Research, 78(1), 123 - 129. ISSN 0008-6363.

    Abstract:

    Aims: Studies in animals and patients indicate that rapamycin affects vasodilatation differently in outer and inner curvatures of blood vessels. We evaluated in this study whether rapamycin affects endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) responsiveness to shear stress under normo- and hypercholeste

  • Images in Cardiovascular Medicine. True three-dimensional reconstructed images showing lumen enlargement after sirolimus-eluting stent implantation (2002)Open access

    Authors:Tanabe, K. (Kengo); Degertekin, M. (Muzaffer); Ligthart, J.M.R. (Jürgen); Oortman, R.M. (Remko); Slager, C.J. (Cornelis); Serruys, P.W.J.C. (Patrick); Gijsen, F.J.H. (Frank)
    In:Circulation (Baltimore), 106(22), 179 - 180. ISSN 0009-7322.

  • Images in cardiovascular medicine. Focal in-stent restenosis near step-up: roles of low and oscillating shear stress? (2002)Open access
