Order distribution of passive vessel parameters obtained by fitting Eq. 1 to the experimental data of pressure versus diameter.

In situ data (Kassab et al., 1999).

Data of in vitro isolated microvessels (Liao and Kuo, 1997).

In vitro data (Hamza et al., 2003). The vessel load free passive radius for each order, R₀ at 0 mmHg, was calculated from the vessel cast radius, R₈₀, under 80 mmHg (Kassab et al., 1993) based on Eq. 1.
