WSS measurement is challenging since it requires sensitive flow measurements at a distance close to the wall. The aim of this study is to develop an ultrasound imaging technique which combines vector flow imaging with an unsupervised data clustering approach that automatically detects the region close to the wall with optimally linear flow profile, to provide direct and robust WSS estimation. The proposed technique was evaluated in phantoms, mimicking normal and atherosclerotic vessels, and spatially registered Fluid Structure Interaction (FSI) simulations. A relative error of 6.7% and 19.8% was obtained for peak systolic (WSS
