Modeling the Link between Left Ventricular Flow and Thromboembolic Risk Using Lagrangian Coherent Structures
A thrombus is a blood clot that forms on a surface, and can grow and detach, presenting a high risk for stroke and pulmonary embolism. This risk increases with blood-contacting medical devices, due to the immunological response to foreign surfaces and altered flow patterns that activate the blood an...
