Vector field visualization of the velocity field (\(\vec {\nu }\)) over the entire tridimensional volume of the carotid bifurcation of a healthy volunteer: a PC-MRI; b CFD; c CFD guided by PC-MRI data corresponding to the main velocity component (\(w_{\mathrm {mri}}\)); and d CFD guided by PC-MRI data corresponding to all three velocity components (\(u_{\mathrm {mri}}\), \(v_{\mathrm {mri}}\), and \(w_{\mathrm {mri}}\)). The dotted line in a indicates the position of the slice shown in Fig. 6
