We are interested in getting data for vascular simulation project. We need data for actual outer and inner diameter of various arteries in patients with cardiovascular disease. Is there any source for getting such a data set?
You might find what you're looking for in:
1. Mette S. Olufsen et al. Numerical simulation and experimental validation of blood flow in arteries with structured-tree outflow conditions. Ann Biomed Engineer 2000; 28: 1281-1299.
2. Nicolaas Westerhof et al. Analog studies of the human systemic arterial tree. J Biomechanics 1969; 2: 121-143.
Especially the last article contains a wealth of data in this respect.
Good luck with your project, I am very curious.

Thanks a lot for two good references. Appreciate the help. We are in the process of coming up with a simple mathematical model that can simulate the blood flow. If you send me your email id, I will keep you posted. Please write to me at [email protected]
Thank you.
