The Impact of Blood Rheology on Drug Transport in Stented Arteries: Steady Simulations.

<h4>Background and methods</h4>It is important to ensure that blood flow is modelled accurately in numerical studies of arteries featuring drug-eluting stents due to the significant proportion of drug transport from the stent into the arterial wall which is flow-mediated. Modelling blood...
