A macrofluidic model to investigate the intrinsic thrombogenicity of clinically used stents and develop less thrombogenic stents
Microfluidic blood flow models have been instrumental to study the functions of blood platelets in hemostasis and arterial thrombosis. However, they are not suited to investigate the interactions of platelets with the foreign surfaces of medical devices such as stents, mainly because of the dimensio...
