Liver blood vessels architecture.

(a) Schematic representation of the hepatic lobules. They consist of plates of hepatocytes, and sinusoids radiating from a central vein interconnected with the interlobular portal triads: the hepatic artery (red), the portal vein (blue), and the common bile duct (green). (b) computational model of the liver parenchyma in which we can observe the blood vessel architecture. (c) Heat map of the oxygen diffusion in the liver microenvironment. Blue dotted lines were drawn just as a guide to the eye.
