Tracking red blood cells flowing through a microchannel with a hyperbolic contraction: an automatic method

The present chapter aims to assess the motion and deformation index of red blood cells (RBCs) flowing through a microchannel with a hyperbolic contraction using an image analysis based method. For this purpose, a microchannel containing a hyperbolic contraction was fabricated in polydimethylsiloxane...
