Abstract
Systems and methods are provided including a housing configured to receive and engage a hollow tissue structure within a fluid chamber of the housing. A first pair of flow channels and a second pair of flow channels of the housing are fluidly coupled to the fluid chamber. The housing fluidly couples the first pair of flow channels and fluidly couples the second pair of flow channels via a second flow path such that a change in a fluid pressure differential between a first fluid in the first flow path and a second fluid in the second flow path deflects at least a portion of the hollow tissue structure causing a change in flow of the first fluid through the first pair of flow channels or a change in flow of the second fluid through the second pair of flow channels.
