Differences in Collagen Fiber Diameter and Waviness between Healthy and Aneurysmal Abdominal Aortas

Collagen plays a key role in the strength of aortic walls, so studying micro-structural changes during disease development is critical to better understand collagen reorganization. Second-harmonic generation microscopy is used to obtain images of human aortic collagen in both healthy and diseased st...
