In Vivo Assessment of Embryonic Cardiovascular Dimensions and Function in Day-10.5 to -14.5 Mouse Embryos
1 Aug 1996
Abstract excerpt
Embryonic cardiovascular function has been extensively studied in vivo in the chick embryo. However, the geometry of mammalian and avian hearts differs; the mammalian cardiovascular system is coupled to both yolk sac and placental circulations, and unique murine genetic models associated with structural and functional cardiovascular defects are now available. We therefore adapted techniques validated for the...
