Radial compliance of porcine coronary arteries ex vivo under pulsatile flow – perspectives for stent biomechanics

Besides visual assessment of the intra-vascular appearance, intravascular optical coherence tomography (IVOCT) enables precise diameter measurements within the coronary arteries. The current study presents an upgraded test setup allowing the investigation of the elastic properties of porcine coronar...
