In a longitudinal design, four arterial segments in mice were followed by positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) imaging. We aimed to determine how the tracers reflected the development of atherosclerosis via the uptake of 2-deoxy-2 ...

A multi-angle plane wave imaging approach for high frequency 2D flow visualization in small animals: simulation study in the murine arterial system [PDF]
To preclinically investigate the role of hemodynamics in atherogenesis, mouse models are particularly useful due to the rapid disease development. As such, murine blood flow visualization has become an important tool, with current US systems equipped ...

Helical flow in tortuous aortas and its relationship to turbulence: A whole-aorta 4D flow MRI study
BackgroundIncreased vascular tortuosity is a hallmark of ageing of the vascular system, including the aorta. However, the impact of tortuosity on aortic blood flow is unknown.

Variations in Testicular Artery, Phrenic Artery and Renal Artery: A Case Series [PDF]
Anomalous blood vessels are important from the clinical aspects such as hydronephrosis, Varicocele leading to risk of infarction of kidney during renal transplant surgeries. Here, we report a case series of 30 cadavers of male and female aged between 40-

Association between adiposity and systemic atherosclerosis: a protocol of a cross-sectional autopsy study. [PDF]
IntroductionAdiposity has been associated with atherosclerosis in clinical studies. However, few autopsy studies have investigated this association, and they had only examined the coronary artery disease. Moreover, most studies had small sample sizes and

Aortic Wave Dynamics and Its Influence on Left Ventricular Workload [PDF]
The pumping mechanism of the heart is pulsatile, so the heart generates pulsatile flow that enters into the compliant aorta in the form of pressure and flow waves.

Associations of Perirenal Fat Thickness with Renal and Systemic Calcified Atherosclerosis. [PDF]
BackgroundWe investigated associations between perirenal fat thickness and atherosclerotic calcification in six different vascular beds.MethodsUsing a community-based cohort (n=3,919), perirenal fat thickness was estimated from computed tomography scans.

Computational fluid dynamicaccuracy in mimicking changes in blood hemodynamics in patients with acute type IIIb aortic dissection treated with TEVAR [PDF]
Background: We aimed to verify the accuracy of the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) algorithm for blood flow reconstruction for type IIIb aortic dissection (TBAD) before and after thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR).

A Fibromatosis Case Mimicking Abdominal Aorta Aneurysm
Retroperitoneal fibrosis is a rare fibrosing reactive process that may be confused with mesenteric fibromatosis. Abdominal aorta aneurysm is rare too and mostly develops secondary to Behcet’s disease, trauma, and infection or connective tissue diseases ...
