Utility of local capillary supply indices: Insights from computational image‐based modelling
Abstract figure legend Local capillary distribution and fibre geometry influence oxygen availability in skeletal muscle. Image‐based modelling of tissue PO2${{P}_{{{{\mathrm{O}}}_2}}}$ shows that area‐based measures of capillary supply – the local capillary density (LCDi) and local maximum diffusion distance (Dmax,i) – most accurately represent the ...
