Diferencias regionales en la biomecánica y amortiguamiento arterial sistémico y pulmonar / Regional differences in the biomechanical and systemic and pulmonary arterial buffer

Systemic arteries show higher vascular disease than pulmonary ones. The aim of this study was to establish regional and functional differences in the mechanical properties of arteries in both circulations. Pressure (Konigsberg) and diameter (Sonomicrometry) were measured in seven artery segments corresponding to each sheep (N=7) using a previously developed mock circulation loop...
