Studies and scientific research on the characteristic of the capillaries in humans as the basis for assessing the human health is still limited. This study was an effort to characterize the nailfold capillaries morphology. Capillaries were extracted from Nailfold Capillaroscopy, a digital microscopy technique that visualize capillaries under the nailfold. Morphological parameters included arteriolar and venular limb diameter, terminal loop diameter, terminal loop width, capillary height, tortuosity and capillary density. In this study, morphological parameters of normal and hypertensive subjects was compared. Results showed that there were significant differences in arteriolar and venular limb diameter, terminal loop width, capillary height, and tortuosity between normal and hypertensive subjects.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]capillaries,Capillary density,Digital microscopy,hypertensive,Morphological characterization,Morphological parameters,Nailfold Capillaroscopy,Scientific researches[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]capillaries,characterization,hypertensive,Nailfold Capillaroscopy,parameter extraction[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1109/ISITIA.2016.7828644[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
