Insights Into Regional Adaptations in the Growing Pulmonary Artery Using a Meso-Scale Structural Model: Effects of Ascending Aorta Impingement
8 Jan 2014
Abstract excerpt
As the next step in our investigations into the structural adaptations of the main pulmonary artery (PA) during postnatal growth, we utilized the extensive experimental measurements of the growing ovine PA from our previous study (Fata et al., 2013, "Estimated in vivo Postnatal Surface Growth Patterns of the Ovine Main Pulmonary Artery and Ascending Aorta," J. Biomech. Eng., 135(7), pp. 71010-71012). to develop a...
