The aims of the present study were to: (1) utilize the PWI information to automatically and optimally divide the artery into the segments with most homogeneous properties and (2) assess the feasibility of this method to provide arterial wall mechanical characterization in normal and atherosclerotic carotid arteries\n                    <jats:italic>in vivo<\/jats:italic>\n                    . A silicone phantom consisting of a soft and stiff segment along its longitudinal axis was scanned at the stiffness transition, and the PWV in each segment was estimated through static testing. The proposed algorithm detected the stiffness interface with an average error of 0.98\u2009\u2009\u00b1\u2009\u20090.49\u2009mm and 1.04\u2009\u2009\u00b1\u2009\u20090.27\u2009mm in the soft-to-stiff and stiff-to-soft pulse wave transmission direction, respectively.

Moreover, lower compliance was estimated in cases where vulnerable plaque characteristics were present (i.e. necrotic lipid core, thrombus), compared to stable plaque components (calcification), as evaluated through plaque histological examination. The proposed algorithm was thus capable of evaluating arterial wall inhomogeneity and characterize wall mechanical properties, showing promise in vascular disease diagnosis and monitoring.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1088\/1361-6560\/ab58fa","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,11,19]],"date-time":"2019-11-19T18:00:19Z","timestamp":1574186419000},"page":"025010","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1088\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["Arterial wall mechanical inhomogeneity detection and atherosclerotic plaque characterization using high frame rate pulse wave imaging in carotid artery disease patients\n                    <i>in vivo<\/i>"],"prefix":"10.1088","volume":"65","author":[{"given":"Grigorios M","family":"Karageorgos","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Iason Z","family":"Apostolakis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Pierre","family":"Nauleau","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Vittorio","family":"Gatti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rachel","family":"Weber","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"E Sander","family":"Connolly","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7108-8906","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Eliza C","family":"Miller","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Elisa E","family":"Konofagou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"266","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,1,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"pmbab58fabib001","article-title":"2D and 3D high frame-rate pulse wave imaging for the characterization of focal vascular disease","author":"Apostolakis","year":"2018","type":"other"},{"key":"pmbab58fabib002","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"259","DOI":"10.1109\/tmi.2019.2926141","type":"journal-article","article-title":"Adaptive pulse wave imaging: automated spatial vessel wall inhomogeneity detection in phantoms and in vivo","volume":"39","author":"Apostolakis","year":"2019","journal-title":"IEEE Trans.
