Dataset for "Co-Localization of Microstructural Damage and Excessive Mechanical Strain at Aortic Branches in Angiotensin-II Infused Mice"

<p>This dataset contains geometries and simulation files for the manuscript &quot;Co-Localization of Microstructural Damage and Excessive Mechanical Strain at Aortic Branches in Angiotensin-II Infused Mice&quot;, to be published in the journal &quot;Biomechanics and Modeling in Mechanobiology&quot;.</p> <p>For each animal described in the study, the following data are uploaded:</p> <p>[mouse name]_Strain.vtp contains the Eulerian strain estimation for each abdominal aorta mapped back on the ex vivo undeformed configuration.</p> <p>[mouse name]_Scan.vtp is the abdominal aorta in the ex vivo undeformed configuration, as scanned using PCXTM imaging.</p> <p>[mouse name]_Exitron.vtp is the distribution of contrast agent infiltration along the aorta (can be superimposed to the corresponding &lsquo;scan.vtp&rsquo; file), which serves a surrogate for vascular damage.</p> <p>The aortic partitioning described in the paper&rsquo;s method section was performed on all of the above .vtp files for every animal. .vtp files can be visualized in the open-source Paraview or similar software, and used for centerline calculations using the open-source vmtk software.</p>
