Measuring pulmonary arterial compliance: mission impossible? Insights from a novel in vivo continuous-flow based experimental model

Arterial compliance (C) is related to the elasticity, size, and geometrical distribution of arteries. Compliance is a determinant of the load that impedes ventricular ejection. Measuring compliance is difficult, particularly in the pulmonary circulation in which resistive and compliant vessels overl...
