    Artificial Intelligence Velocimetry and Microaneurysm-on-a-Chip for Three-Dimensional Analysis of Blood Flow in Physiology and Disease

    Investigators demonstrated the capability of artificial-intelligence velocimetry by quantifying hemodynamics in microchannels designed to mimic saccular-shaped microaneurysms, which signified common manifestations of diabetic retinopathy, a leading cause of vision loss from blood-vessel damage in the retina in diabetic patients.
