A vascular model includes at least one microchannel perfusable by at least one fluid and in a form of a hollow structure having a wall thickness in a range from 0.1 &#x3bc;m to 1000 &#x3bc;m, a concave inner surface with a cross-section which is circular in part and at least one pore having a diameter in a range from 1 nm to 100 &#x3bc;m. The at least one microchannel has a width in a range from 0.01 &#x3bc;m to 10 mm and a depth in a range from 0.01 &#x3bc;m to 10 mm. At least one chamber is perfusable by a same and/or different fluid and surrounds the at least one microchannel over an entire length and width or over parts thereof. The at least one chamber adjoins the at least one microchannel. At least one connector is configured to receive and/or discharge the at least one fluid.
