Experiment with the formation of arterial thrombosis using iron (III) chloride (FeCl3). (A) Intraoperative view of the right and left common carotid arteries. The right CCA was already thrombosed (control). (B) Intraoperative view of induced thrombosis of the left CCA with the application of iron(III) chloride: a thrombus is detected in the lumen of the vessel. (C) LSCI visualization of blood flow in the left CCA before thrombosis. The right CCA was thrombosed, and there was no blood flow. (D) Absence of blood flow according to the LSCI in both CCAs after the application of iron(III) chloride to the left CCA. * Scale bar is 10 mm.
