(a) Microangiogram images showing the baseline branching pattern (to the fourth generation) of small pulmonary arteries, and (b) the number of opaque vessels (mean ± SEM) at each of the first four branching generations of the pulmonary circulation in Control (n = 5), MCT (n = 6) and MCT+Fluox rats (n = 7). The tungsten wire in each angiogram image is a reference of 50 µm diameter. † Significantly different from Control rats (†P < 0.05; ††P < 0.01). |
