The process that regulates the coordinated growth and sprouting of blood vessels giving rise to the organized vascular system. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of a blood vessel over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The blood vessel is the vasculature carrying blood. Blood vessel formation when new vessels emerge from the proliferation of pre-existing blood vessels and contribute to the series of events that restore integrity to a damaged tissue, following an injury. The process by which the anatomical structures of blood vessels are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. The blood vessel is the vasculature carrying blood. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of angiogenesis. The extension of new blood vessels from existing capillaries into avascular tissues resulting from the proliferation of blood vessel endothelial cells. Blood vessel formation when new vessels emerge from the proliferation of pre-existing blood vessels. The formation of new blood vessels as a result of the insertion and extension of lumenal tissue pillars. The process by which anatomical structures are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. Any process that activates or increases angiogenesis. A biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of an integrated living unit: an anatomical structure (which may be a subcellular structure, cell, tissue, or organ), or organism over time from an initial condition to a later condition. The developmental process pertaining to the initial formation of an anatomical structure from unspecified parts. This process begins with the specific processes that contribute to the appearance of the discrete structure and ends when the structural rudiment is recognizable. An anatomical structure is any biological entity that occupies space and is distinguished from its surroundings. Anatomical structures can be macroscopic such as a carpel, or microscopic such as an acrosome. Blood vessel formation in the heart when new vessels emerge from the proliferation of pre-existing blood vessels. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of angiogenesis.
