Non‐Newtonian Flow of Blood in Arterioles: Consequences for Wall Shear Stress Measurements

Abstract

Our primary goal is to investigate the effects of non‐Newtonian blood properties on wall shear stress in microvessels. The secondary goal is to derive a correction factor for the Poiseuille‐law‐based indirect measurements of wall shear stress.
