(A) The CFD simulation results showed that the velocity distribution along the middle cross-section of the main branch in the vessels when the stent was implanted with strategy II. Four regions of interest were selected for further analysis and comparison with the in vitro experiment. The upper-right inset shows the stent position inside the chip channel. (B) The fluid flow was imaged with an inverted microscope. The velocities at interrogation points in the regions that correspond to the simulation are labelled and measured; (C) The listed velocities demonstrated that the experiment and the simulation had a satisfactory coincidence.
