The MicroMechAthero project focuses on understanding the mechanisms behind atherosclerotic plaque rupture, a leading cause of heart attacks and strokes. It aims to develop a new computational framework for assessing the risk of plaque failure using advanced imaging and modeling techniques, ultimately improving cardiova…
Atherosclerotic plaque rupture in arteries is the primary cause of cardiovascular events such as heart infarct and stroke, which are responsible for 45% of deaths in Europe.
Plaque rupture is a mechanical event, where the collagenous plaque tissue fails to withstand blood pressure loading.
Identifying plaques at high risk of rupture is the key to prevent these fatal events.
However, the current risk assessment strategy fails to achieve this as it lacks mechanistic insights into tissue failure. T…
