 | Three-dimensional rotational angiography in murine models: a technical note. |  f2-cln64_12p1234: 2D Angiographic image of aortic bifurcation. Superimposition and overlapping determine loss of three-dimensional information; for example, it is impossible to resolve the angle of bifurcation of the arteriesBottom Line: Not Available. | Ortiz-Velázquez RI, Caldas JG, Lobo BC, Santos-Franco JA, et al. - Clinics (Sao Paulo) (2009) |
