For every embryo, statistics are listed for the collection of vessel segments and branch points for both measurement series T1 and T2: mean Inline graphic and standard deviation Inline graphic of the tortuosity Inline graphic, standard deviation of the angle between the vessel segment and the main flow direction Inline graphic, mean arterial branching angle Inline graphic, mean venous branching angle Inline graphic, and mean Murray’s law ratio for both arterial and venous branches Inline graphic and Inline graphic. These parameters are illustrated in Figure 7 for clarity.
