On Blood Viscosity and Its Correlation with Biological Parameters

In recent years interest in blood viscosity has increased significantly in different biomedical areas. Blood viscosity, a measure of the resistance of blood flow, related to its thickness and stickiness, is one of the main biophysical properties of blood. Many factors affect blood viscosity, both in physiological and in pathological conditions.
