Surface area‐to‐volume ratio, not cellular viscoelasticity, is the major determinant of red blood cell traversal through small channels
The remarkable deformability of red blood cells (RBCs) depends on the viscoelasticity of the plasma membrane and cell contents and the surface area to volume (SA:V) ratio; however, it remains unclear which of these factors is the key determinant for passage through small capillaries. We used a micro...
