Abstract
An estimation of arterial wall properties is provided. A method for determining a wall property of an artery such as an aorta includes acquiring patient data and extracting physical data from the patient data. The physical data is applied to a blood flow model of the aorta to obtain an individual blood flow model. The wall property of the artery is directly or indirectly determined from the individual blood flow model.
