A novel biomimetic design of a 3D vascular structure for self-healing in cementitious materials using Murray's law

TL;DR: In this article, a biomimetic 3D vascular network was designed and generated following Murray's law for circulatory blood volume transfer, which was constructed through 3D printing and assessed in a cement-based matrix.

Automated analysis of retinal vascular network connectivity

TL;DR: An algorithm that forms a retinal vessel graph by analysing the potential connectivity of segmented retinal vessels and resolving the configuration of local sets of segment ends determines the network connectivity.

The influence of contrast agent injection on physiological flow in the circle of Willis

TL;DR: The temporal, spatial, and inter-patient variability of the response to injection are examined and an injection is prescribed in the internal carotid in a 1D wave propagation model of the arterial circulation to achieve constant effect over a cardiac cycle.

Assessment of Conjunctival Microvascular Hemodynamics in Stages of Diabetic Microvasculopathy.

TL;DR: Altered alterations in conjunctival microvascular hemodynamics were quantitatively assessed at stages of increasing diabetic microvasculopathy based on diabetic retinopathy, suggestive of the potential of WSR and WSS as a marker of diabetic microVascular Hemodynamics.

Development of a dynamic model for the lung lobes and airway tree in the NCAT phantom

TL;DR: A mathematical algorithm with physiological constraints will be used to extend the original airway model to fill each lobe and create a new 4D respiratory model, an important step in advancing the 4D NCAT for applications in more high-resolution imaging modalities such as X-ray CT.
