The Fractal Geometry of Blood Clots

The Fractal Geometry of Blood Clots

We describe a simple method to characterize the fractal dimension of blood coagulation using high-resolution vital light microscopy. We also report that the fractal dimension is a dynamic process that can be influenced by external acoustic vibrations.
