  2. The Team Andreas Pabst, DMD Maximilian Ackermann, MD -To see clear, it often needs a change of perspective only- Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (1900-1944)

  3. Angiogenesis angiogenesis / an • gio • gen • e • sis / greek, ἄγγος + γένεσις  The human body contains about 60.000 miles of blood vessels.  The smallest blood vessels are called capillaries . The human body includes about 19 billions of them.  Blood vessel architecture can adapt to the different human tissues and organs and variegate within different physiological and pathological structures. see for yourself.. . William Lee, MD The Angiogenesis Foundation

  4. 3D Vascular Imaging The following images illustrate different physiological and pathological blood vessel architectures, which were replicated by Microvascular corrosion casting and visualized by Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Synchrotron X-ray tomographic microscopy (SRXTM). Please use 3D glases to observe the 3D SEM and SRXTM images, which are highlighted by the following symbol...

  5. Regular skin vasculature Parallel organized pattern of microvascular skin architecture.

  6. Regular skin vasculature Microvascular skin architecture in low magnification with different calibers of blood vessels.

  7. Wound healing These vessels are located at the wound margin of a skin wound, typically seen in regenerating tissues.

  8. Microvascular skin flaps Vascular architecture in reanastomosed microvascular free flaps with multiple sprouts (red) and pillars (white) as characteristic hallmarks of sprouting and intussusceptive angiogenesis.
