Rubbing Against Blood Clots Using Helical Robots: Modeling and In Vitro Experimental Validation
RA-L 2017
The risk of side effects from thrombolytic agents can be minimized by using smaller doses, assisted by mechanical rubbing against blood clots using helical robots. Quantifying this observation, we study the influence of rubbing against clots on their removal rate in vitro. First, we present a hydrod
