(a) Total distribution of emboli to cervical vessels across all particle size originating from Aortic root; (b) Total accumulation distribution of emboli in aortic root across all particle size originating from Aortic root. The distribution is represented as fraction of emboli that reached the cervical vessels to the total amount of resolved particles at the end of 4 cardiac cycles. The labels C, L and H correspond to constant flow w/o pulse modulation, flow with low pulse modulation, and flow with high pulse modulation respectively (as outlined in Section "Patient-specific hemodynamics modeling").
