Effect of blood flow patterns on localized platelet adhesion under physiologic flow conditions using two-dimensional and three-dimensional stent models - an experimental and computational approach
This dissertation presents dynamic flow experiments with fluorescently labeled platelets to allow for spatial observation of wall attachrent in inter-strut spacings, to investigate their relationship to flow patterns. Human blood with fluorescently labeled platelets was circulated through an in vitr...
