Bubbles have been observed both stationary in the tissues and moving with the blood. It has been proposed that the bubbles observed in the blood grow directly on the vessel walls. A possible mechanism for this is the growth of bubbles in sites resembling crevices in the endothelium. A crevice bubble growth model is derived based on existing tissue bubble models and tested with physiologically realistic parameters. ? 2005 IEEE.BloodBubbles (in fluids)DiseasesPhysiological modelsTissueBubble growth modelsDecompression sicknessEndotheliumVessel wallsBlood vesselsconference paper10.1109/iembs.2005.16169092-s2.0-33846923891
