Key result
A combined imaging and pressure myography approach enables simultaneous assessment of the mechanical properties of resistance arteries and pressure-related changes in the structure of the arterial wall.
This protocol enables the quantification of microarchitectural changes in human resistance arteries under pressure, facilitating the development of mathematical models for microvascular mechanics in health and disease.

Does not support clinical vascular assessment; extends preclinical tools for modeling microvascular mechanics.
Bloksgaard et al. (2018) studied this question. Label-free fluorescence microscopy and pressure myography was evaluated. A combined imaging and pressure myography approach enables simultaneous assessment of the mechanical properties of resistance arteries and pressure-related changes in the structure of the arterial wall.
