Structural parameters defining distribution of collagen fiber directions in human carotid arteries

Collagen fiber arrangement is decisive for constitutive description of anisotropic mechanical response of arterial wall. In this study, their orientation in human common carotid artery was investigated using polarized light microscopy and an automated algorithm giving more than 4·106 fiber angles pe...
