Hemodynamic occlusion introduces a spatially heterogenous confound to activity measurements using two-photon and widefield imaging in mouse cortex, and needs to be taken into consideration when ...

Miniature organs on a chip could allow us to do scientific studies with great precision, without having to resort to animal testing. The main problem, however, is that artificial tissue needs blood ...

Blood vessels are like big-city highways; full of curves, branches, merges, and congestion. Yet for years, lab models ...

In biomedical research, so-called organs-on-a-chip, also referred to as microphysiological systems, are becoming increasingly ...

Engineers from Texas A University (TAMU) have developed a groundbreaking tiny chip that mimics real human blood vessels, ...

Abstract: Scattering from blood limits the contrast between the vessel wall and the lumen in intravascular ultrasound imaging. This makes it difficult to localize the vessel wall, especially on still ...

Abstract: Automated detection of blood vessel structures is becoming a crucial interest for better management of vascular disease. In this paper, we propose an algorithm for vessel segmentation in ...

Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is when your blood travels through blood vessels with more force than is considered healthy. When blood pressure is high, it can damage artery and blood ...

A blood clot in the veins that drain the blood from the brain is called a sinus or cerebral vein thrombosis. It is an uncommon type of clot, affecting about 1500 people in the United States per year.
