Implication

Establishes ex vivo porcine coronary benchmarks; leaves open human in vivo translation and clinical relevance.

Structured PICO

Population

Porcine left anterior descending coronary arteries dissected ex vivo

Intervention

Measurement of viscoelastic properties using dynamic mechanical analysis (0.5 to 10 Hz) and surface roughness using 3D reconstructed surface images from an optical microscope

Outcome

Viscoelastic properties (storage and loss modulus) and surface roughness (circumferential and longitudinal)surrogate

This study demonstrates the feasibility of quantitatively measuring the viscoelastic properties and endothelial surface roughness of coronary arteries ex vivo.
