In this study, we propose a novel computational framework for designing innovative self-
expandable femoral stents. First, a two-dimensional stent unit cell is designed by inverse …

In-stent restenosis (ISR) is a maladaptive inflammatory-driven response of femoral arteries
to percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stent deployment, leading to lumen re …

Despite being commonly employed to treat peripheral artery disease, self-expanding Nitinol
stents are still associated with relatively high incidence of failure in the mid-and long-term …

In-stent restenosis in superficial femoral arteries (SFAs) is a complex, multi-factorial and
multiscale vascular adaptation process whose thorough understanding is still lacking …

Abstract Background and Objectives The integration of hemodynamic markers as risk factors
in restenosis prediction models for lower-limb peripheral arteries is hindered by fragmented …

Biological tissues receive oxygen and nutrients from blood vessels by develo** an
indispensable supply and demand relationship with the blood vessels. We implemented a …

Objectives The study investigated mechanical parameters of stent systems indicated for
treatment of femoropopliteal (FP) arterial disease to support interpretation of clinical results …

Reduced blood flow to the lower extremities causes peripheral arterial disease (PAD), which
is caused by atherosclerotic plaque in the arterial wall. If this impairment is not treated, it will …

Sizing of flow diverters (FDs) is a challenging task in the treatment of intracranial aneurysms
due to their foreshortening behavior. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the difference …

Purpose To investigate the accuracy of high-framerate echo particle image velocimetry
(ePIV) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) for determining velocity vectors in femoral …
