Low OSI may inform ILT monitoring in small AAAs; leaves open causal role and need for prospective validation.
Do specific hemodynamic parameters correlate with intraluminal thrombus progression in small abdominal aortic aneurysms?
In small abdominal aortic aneurysms, regions of low oscillatory shear index correlate strongly with intraluminal thrombus growth, providing insight into the hemodynamic mechanisms of aneurysm progression.
Arzani et al. (2014) studied this question.
