Micro-computed tomography for the quantification of blocked fibers in hemodialyzers [PDF]
A novel technique based on micro-CT scanning is developed to quantify coagulation in fibers of hemodialyzers. This objectivation is needed to allow accurate assessment of thrombogenicity of dialyzers used during hemodialysis, for example when comparing ...
