Abstract

Introduction

Postmortem evaluation of the human vascular system has a long history, with advancements ranging from dissections to modern imaging techniques like computed tomography (CT scan). This study designs a novel combination of Angiofil, a liquid radiopaque polymer, and latex, a flexible cast material, for cadaveric vascular analysis.

Material & methods

The aim was to synergize the advantages of both components, providing accurate radiological images and optimal dissection conditions. Three arterial territories (lateral circumflex femoral artery, profunda brachii artery, and radial artery) were injected and assessed through CT scans and dissections.

Results

The Angiofil-latex mixture allowed successful visualization of the vascular networks, offering a simple, reproducible, and non-toxic approach. Quantitative assessments of the three territories, including diameters and lengths, showed comparable results between CT scan and dissection.

Discussion

The technique precision and versatility make it an accessible and valuable tool for anatomical studies, potentially extending its application to MRI analyses. Overall, the Angiofil-latex combination presents a cost-effective solution for researchers, offering enhanced visibility and detailed anatomical insights for various applications, including anatomical variation studies.

导言:人体血管系统的尸检评估由来已久,从解剖到计算机断层扫描(CT 扫描)等现代成像技术都取得了进步。本研究设计了一种液态不透射线聚合物 Angiofil 和柔性铸模材料乳胶的新型组合,用于尸体血管分析:材料与方法:目的是协同两种成分的优势,提供准确的放射图像和最佳的解剖条件。对三个动脉区域(股外侧环动脉、肱深动脉和桡动脉)进行注射,并通过 CT 扫描和解剖进行评估:结果:Angiofil-乳胶混合物可成功观察血管网络,是一种简单、可重复、无毒的方法。对三个区域的定量评估(包括直径和长度)显示,CT 扫描和解剖结果具有可比性:讨论:该技术的精确性和多功能性使其成为解剖学研究中一种易用且有价值的工具,并有可能将其应用扩展到核磁共振成像分析中。总之,Angiofil-乳胶组合为研究人员提供了一种具有成本效益的解决方案,为包括解剖变异研究在内的各种应用提供了更高的可视性和详细的解剖见解。
