Magnetische versus manuelle Navigation in der interventionellen Neuroradiologie : In-vitro-Ergebnisse
… cannot be changed while the guidewire is in the vessel. We evaluated a novel magnetic navigation system (MNS) that generates a magnetic field to control the deflection of a microguidewire that can be used to reshape the guidewire tip in vivo without removing the wire from the body, thereby …

Blood Vessel Development
… Cardiovascular function depends on patent blood vessel formation by endothelial cells. In this dissertation, a careful analysis of different aspects of blood vessel development was conducted in order to expand our understandings of the biology of blood vessel. In brief, Chapter 2 provides an in …

Application of magnetic resonance elastography to atherosclerosis
… wave propagation, noise and resolution left the vessel wall and plaque unresolvable. A computational replica of the phantoms yielded clearer wave images and elastograms, indicating that changes to the experimental procedure could lead to more successful results. The comparison also highlighted …

Hydraulic trait variation in Protea repens with change in climate in space and time
… in the hydraulic traits (leaf and xylem anatomy) of Protea repens (L.) across a spatial climatic gradient in the CFR relative to a common garden experiment. I then compare the contemporary trait-climate relationships with a 21 year old xylem anatomy dataset. In the common garden …

New MRI Techniques for Nanoparticle Based Functional and Molecular Imaging
… of our novel 19F MRI techniques is blood vessel imaging and rapid blood oxygen tension measurement in vivo. Blood vessel anatomy and blood oxygen tension provide pivotal physiological information for routine diagnosis of cardiovascular disease. Using our novel "Blood: …

Investigation of host cell wall degrading strategies of Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa)
… site. The research also investigates whether vessel anatomy and xylem architecture play a role in the systemic mobility of the pathogen within the plant. Chapter Two of the thesis determines whether Psa is able to multiply and grow on kiwifruit wood-containing medium and whether Psa …

Effects of experimental drought on hydraulic properties and leaf traits of upper canopy and understory tree species in a perhumid tropical forest in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia
Die verbliebenen tropischen immerfeuchten Regenwälder könnten durch den prognostizierten Klimawandel in Süd-Ost-Asien immer häufigerer und extremerer Trockenheit ausgesetzt sein. Dabei sind die Auswirkungen starker Trockenheit auf diese Ökosysteme schwer vorhersagbar. Feldexperimente im großen …
