Overview

The structure of the coronary arterial bed is an important determinant of the fractal nature of local flow heterogeneity.

Structured PICO

P
Population
Porcine coronary arterial tree (2 casts made at diastolic arrest and maximal dilation)
I
Intervention
Computer modeling of the coronary arterial tree covering diameters between 10 and 500 microns based on quantified branching patterns
O
Outcome
Quantification of branching patterns (bifurcation, diameter, and length ratios) and prediction of local pressure and flow heterogeneity

The structure of the coronary arterial bed is an important determinant of the fractal nature of local flow heterogeneity.
