Morphometry of human coronary arterial trees.
BACKGROUND Some groups, including ours, have been generating arterial tree models using constrained constructive optimization (CCO). Arterial trees have been grown to arbitrary resolution without input of anatomical data. We performed this study to learn about the shortcomings that might have resulted from neglecting the anatomical data in CCO models. METHODS In a total of 450 segments obtain...
متن کاملMorphometry of pig coronary arterial trees.
To establish a mathematical model of the tree like arteries for the purpose of hemodynamic analysis, a complete set of morphometric data of pig coronary arteries is presented. For the purpose of mathematical modeling, three innovations in morphometry are introduced: 1) a rule for assigning the order numbers of the vessels on the basis of diameter ranges, 2) a connectivity matrix to describe asy...
متن کاملMorphometry of the human pulmonary arterial tree.
From a cast of a human pulmonary arterial tree, the diameter, length, order, and end branches of all intact branches down to those 0.8 mm in diameter were measured and corrections for broken branches were made. A sample of structures smaller than these (0.8-0.1 mm) was similarly measured. The values for branches less than 0.1 mm in diameter were found by extrapolation and comparison with known ...
متن کاملDIFFUSE CORONARY ARTERIAL ECTASIA WITH HYPERTROPHIC CARDIOMYOPATHY
A 40 year old male, a known case of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, was admitted for catheterization. At catheterization and angiography, septum was hypertrophied to about 5cm and diffuse coronary artery aneurysm was revealed. We found no previous report of coronary artery aneurysm in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
متن کاملGrowth, ageing and scaling laws of coronary arterial trees.
Despite the well-known design principles of vascular systems, it is unclear whether the vascular arterial tree obeys some scaling constraints during normal growth and ageing in a given species. Based on the micro-computed tomography measurements of coronary arterial trees in mice at different ages (one week to more than eight months), we show a constant exponent of 3/4, but age-dependent scalin...
