A pseudo-three-dimensional model for quantification of oxygen diffusion from preglomerular arteries to renal tissue and renal venous blood

To assess the physiological significance of arterial-to-venous (AV) oxygen shunting, we generated a new pseudo-three-dimensional computational model of oxygen diffusion from intrarenal arteries to cortical tissue and veins. The model combines the 11 branching levels (known as "Strahler" or...
