GlossaryMicrovessel Density (MVD)

number of tiny blood vessels in a specific tissue area

Microvessel Density (MVD) refers to the number of tiny blood vessels, or microvessels, within a specific area of tissue. It is often used as a measure in medical research to assess the extent of angiogenesis, which is the formation of new blood vessels, particularly in the context of tumor growth and other pathological conditions. High MVD can indicate increased blood supply to a tumor, which may correlate with more aggressive disease and poorer prognosis.
