a Diagram of an initial condition for both local and global approach to computational study, b local-parametrised models of basic shape of the vessel: straight section, bend and a bifurcation, c global-patient-specific model of left coronary artery of patients with stenosis (~ 10%) in the proximal segment of the left circumflex (CX) branch and with the virtually reconstructed of coronary arteries, both without stenosis as well as 24, 62, 75 and 90% stenosis. LM- Left Main Artery, LAD- Left Anterior Descending Artery, CX- Left Circumflex Artery
