Abstract
We propose the development of a knowledge representation model in the area of Blood Vessel analysis, whose need we feel for the future development of the field and for our own research efforts. It will allow easy reuse of software pieces through appropriate abstractions, facilitating the development of innovative methods, procedures and applications. In this paper we present some key ideas that will be fully developed elsewhere.
