From: Alterations in regional vascular geometry produced by theoretical stent implantation influence distributions of wall shear stress: analysis of a curved coronary artery using 3D computational fluid dynamics modeling

Figure 3

Time-dependent alterations in spatial wall shear stress throughout the cardiac cycle in computational vessels implanted with 12 mm stents that conform to (flexible, left) or cause straightening of (inflexible, right) an idealized and curved coronary artery.
