3D Reconstruction of Coronary Artery Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells.

AIMS:The 3D geometry of individual vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), which are essential for understanding the mechanical function of blood vessels, are currently not available. This paper introduces a new 3D segmentation algorithm to determine VSMC morphology and orientation. METHODS AND RESULT...
