Figure 4.
(a–c) Mean ± SD WSS (averaged over all nodes in the corresponding region) at (a) region A, (b) region B, and (c) region C in Y bifurcations of HK and Murray. (d–f) Mean ± SD OSI (averaged over all nodes in the corresponding region) at (d) region A, (e) region B, and (f) region C in Y bifurcations of HK and Murray. Regions A–C correspond to regions marked by symbols A–C in Fig. 2b. Regions A–C have surface areas of 0.94, 1.45, and 0.76 mm2, respectively, where surface area in Region C only corresponds to one of two joint surface regions (anterior and posterior) of mother and two daughter vessels lateral to the carina of daughter vessels. OSI in regions B and C of HK-type bifurcations is zero.
