Table 1 The maximal values of WSS during peak systole in the stenosis (\(\hbox {WSS}_{{\mathrm{st}}}\)), spatially averaged values of WSS during peak systole (\(\hbox {WSS}_{{\mathrm{mean}}}\)) and its standard deviation for the simplified phantom for MRI, \(\hbox {DCFD}_{0.7\times 0.7\times 1.5 \,{\mathrm{mm}}^3}\), \(\hbox {DCFD}_{0.2\times 0.2\times 0.2\,{\mathrm{mm}}^3}\), original CFD, and the peak shift (normalized by the inlet diameter \(d_0\)) in MRI and downsized CFD (with respect to the original CFD)
