Functional, mechanical and geometrical adaptation of the arterial wall of a non-axisymmetric artery in vitro
Vascular remodeling is an adaptive response to variations in the hemodynamic environment acting on the arterial wall. Remodeling translates into changes of structure, geometry and mechanical properties of the artery. Our aim was to study the remodeling response of pig right common carotid arteries in vitro.
