Biomechanical Analysis of Arterial Tissue From Patient Suffering From Peripheral Artery Disease in the Lower Limb

NCT03985150 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 31

Last updated 2023-01-27

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The current treatment approaches for peripheral artery disease are largely unsatisfactory. Therefore, diseased tissue will be collected as well as patient-specific arterial geometries. The tissue will be tested microstructurally and mechanically to obtain data required to optimize treatment methods through in silico modeling.

Conditions

  • Peripheral Arterial Disease

Interventions

OTHER

Biomechanical analysis of femoralis superficialis atherosclerotic tissue

Tissue collection during above-knee amputation; mechanical testing of tissue; microstructural testing of tissue

RADIATION
