.... However, patient-specific vessel material properties are lacking in those models, which affects the accuracy of their stress/strain predictions. A noninvasive approach of combining in vivo Cine MRI, multicontrast 3D MRI, and computational modeling was introduced to quantify patient-specific carotid artery...

... continuously developed. Surprisingly little is known about the mechanical properties of these materials and how these properties compare with those of the carotid artery wall. Mismatch of the mechanical properties can produce mechanical and hemodynamic effects that may compromise the long-term patency...

... equipment fails, is in use, or is located at another facility, it would be useful to store the vessels and postpone the tests until the equipment is available. The goal of this study is to determine the effects of storage time on the mechanical behavior of the common carotid artery from adult mice. Each...
