This study investigates the relationship between fractional flow reserve (FFR) and wall shear stress (WSS) using a virtual stenosis model of coronary arteries. The research explores how FFR decreases and WSS increases as stenotic severity progresses. Simulations based on patient-specific models of coronary arteries were used to validate the model. The findings may aid clinicians in understanding the relationship between FFR and WSS, helping to improve patient-specific treatment strategies.
