Figure Lengend Snippet: Methods for measuring perforation dimensions in the two modalities. The perimeter was measured as an approximation of perforation size. Representative image of these measurements in a Movat Pentachrome stained section from 219 gestational days ( A ). Representative image of these measurements in 2D still image from micro-CT from 163 gestational days ( B ). Note the scale bar varies between images.

Article Snippet: Sections were stained with the Russell–Movat Pentachrome Stain Kit (Statlab, McKinney, TX, USA) to determine the localization of ECM proteins using the manufacturer’s instructions.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Elastin and collagen fibers first appear as short, sparse fragments before beginning to align in parallel with the chordae. ( A ) Movat pentachrome stained section of a perforation (P) with short elastic fragments (red arrows) and longer fragments (green arrows) beginning to align around it. Image taken at 14X magnification using the Pannoramic MIDI II. ( B , C ) Picrosirius red and hematoxylin-stained sections of a perforation (P) with shorter sparse collagen fibrils and collagen beginning to align parallel to the chordae under brightfield ( B ) and polarized light ( C ). Images were taken on a Nikon Eclipse E600 light microscope (Nikon Instruments Inc., Melville, NY, USA) equipped with a polarizer and an AmScope 10MU1400 digital camera (AmScope, Irvine, CA, USA). All photos were taken from sections from the same third trimester valve (219 days into gestation). The scale bar varies per image.
