Overview

Provides porcine coronary morphometry for hemodynamic modeling; leaves open human translation pending validation studies.

Structured PICO

P
Population
Pig coronary arteries
I
Intervention
Morphometric measurements using silicone elastomer-casting and histological optical sectioning
O
Outcome
Morphometric data including order number, diameter, length, connectivity matrix, and fractions of vessels connected in series

Provides a complete set of morphometric data and a mathematical model of pig coronary arterial trees to facilitate hemodynamic analysis of blood pressure, volume, and myocardial perfusion.
