The effect of the elongation of the proximal aorta on the estimation of the aortic wall distensibility

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Bram Trachet, Stamatia Zoi Pagoulatou, Mauro Ferraro, Vasiliki Bikia, Georgios Rovas

The compliance of the proximal aortic wall is a major determinant of cardiac afterload. Aortic compliance is often estimated based on cross-sectional area changes over the pulse pressure, under the assumption of a negligible longitudinal stretch during the ...

Co-localization of microstructural damage and excessive mechanical strain at aortic branches in Angiotensin-II-infused mice

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Patrick Segers, Bram Trachet, Lydia Aslanidou, Mauro Ferraro, Goran Lovric

Animal models of aortic aneurysm and dissection can enhance our limited understanding of the etiology of these lethal conditions particularly because early-stage longitudinal data are scant in humans. Yet, the pathogenesis of often-studied mouse models and ...

Synchrotron-based visualization and segmentation of elastic lamellae in the mouse carotid artery during quasi-static pressure inflation

Synchrotron-based phase contrast imaging of cardiovascular tissue in mice-grating interferometry or phase propagation?

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Patrick Segers, Bram Trachet, Lydia Aslanidou, Mauro Ferraro, Goran Lovric

Synchrotron-based x-ray phase-contrast imaging allows for detailed 3D insight into the microstructure of soft tissue and is increasingly used to improve our understanding of mouse models of cardiovascular disease. Two techniques dominate the field: grating ...
