Abstract

This dataset was used to investigate numerical methods of integration of the Frenet-Serret equations as applied to the study of vessel shape.  This data is a compliation of previously published data from the following papers:

A. V. Kamenskiy, J. N. MacTaggart, I. I. Pipinos, et al., “Three-dimensional geometry of the human carotid artery,” Journal of Biomechanical Engineering, vol. 134, no. 6, p. 064592, 2012.

P. M. O’Flynn, G. O’Sullivan, and A. S Pandit, “Methods for three-dimensional geometric characterization of the arterial vasculature,” Annals of Biomedical Engineering, vol. 35, no. 8, pp. 1368-1381, 2007.

E. Bullitt, D. Zeng, B. Mortamet, et al., "The effects of healthy aging on intracerebral blood vessels visualized by magnetic resonance angiography,” Neurobiology of Aging, vol. 31, no.2, pp. 290-300, 2010.

Enclosed are the centerline coordinates of vessels from the aforementioned studies.

Instructions:

Data is organized by the publication from which it originated.  Each folder contains one or more csv files for either the individual vessel described in the file/folder name, or a collection of vessels corresponding to the patient imaged.  See original publications for further details regarding each dataset.  Within each .csv is, at a minimum, the x,y, and z vessel centerline coordinates, post processing.
