Effect of volume flows on the viability of MSCs during injection through a cannula
Introduction: Clinical trials currently evaluate the use of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for the treatment of non-union bone fractures. The stem cells are injected directly into the non-union area of a bone via a cannula. During this injection process, pressure and shear forces affect the MSCs whic...
