Abstract(s)

Blood in microcircualtion is not a homogenous fluid but the suspension of Red Blood Cells(RBC). So individual RBCs behavior is essential to get good comprehension about the blood flow in microcirculation. In this study we observe the RBCs behavior through the stenosis by using confocal-micro- PTV system. And we can observe the difference of the cell free layer thickness according to Hct.
