Most arterial mechanics studies have focused on excised non-coronary vessels, with few studies validating the application of ex-vivo results to in-vivo conditions. A method was developed for testing the mechanical properties of intact left anterior descending coronary arteries under a variety of conditions. Vascular deformation and pressure were simultaneously measured with intravascular ultrasound and a pressure transducer guidewire, respectively. Results suggest the importance of understanding in-vivo factors such as myocardial support, vascular tone and local pressure fluctuations when applying ex-vivo coronary characterization data. With further development, this method can more accurately characterize the true in-vivo constitutive behavior in normal and atherosclerotic coronaries.
