In addition, the vessel wall, particularly of the carotid artery, can be assessed more closely and plaques and, if necessary, tears or inflammation of the vessel [...] constrictions and bypassing blood vessels. In addition, we also regularly visualize the temporal artery (A. temporalis superficialis) in patients with suspected giant cell arteritis.

In the first hours and [...] after birth, the blood then flows through the remaining connection from the aorta into the pulmonary artery. Physiology and hemodynamics Depending on the size of the ductus, more or less blood flows through [...] A very large ductus arteriosus leads to a pressure equalization between the aorta and pulmonary artery. In the long term, the increased pressure in the pulmonary vessels leads to vascular changes, as

On the other hand, we use special molds and centrifuges to form vessels for arterial replacement [...] Thomas Aper We deal with the tissue engineering of vascular prostheses, a promising replacement for arteries or veins. Such artificially produced vessels, especially if they are based on the body's own starting [...] resemble the original. It is also important to colonize the outer surface of the artificially produced arteries before implantation. In our working group, we are also working on the production of fibrin patches

In addition, the origins of the coronary arteries lie directly behind the aortic valve. This makes implanting an aortic valve much more complicated
