This example came from healthy porcine aorta that was stained with Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E). Using an area-based algorithm, we can quantitatively evaluate the sample for elastin percentage. Elastin is a critical component of the microstructure within large arteries such as the

Analysis of fibrous capsules is a common procedure in evaluation of coated devices.  Microvessel analysis was tested for use in identifying the fibrous capsule differences between a novel coating and a control polypropylene in a subcutaneous rodent implant model.     Microve
