    • Effect of macroscale formation of intraluminal thrombus on blood flow in abdominal aortic aneurysms 

      Raptis, A.; Xenos, M.; Dimas, S.; Giannoukas, A.; Labropoulos, N.; Bluestein, D.; Matsagkas, M. I. (2014)
      A mathematical approach of blood flow within an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) with intraluminal thrombus (ILT) is presented. The macroscale formation of ILT is modeled as a growing porous medium with variable porosity ...
    • Management of the near total internal carotid artery occlusion 

      Giannoukas, A. D.; Labropoulos, N.; Smith, F. C. T.; Venables, G. S.; Beard, J. D. (2005)
