Does aspirin and dipyridamole reduce platelet accumulation on PTFE aortic grafts in a rabbit model?
Does aspirin and dipyridamole reduce platelet accumulation on PTFE aortic grafts in a rabbit model?
External gamma camera imaging was insufficiently sensitive to detect the reduction in platelet accumulation on PTFE grafts by antiplatelet therapy, which was demonstrable by ex vivo scintillation counting.

External imaging lacks sensitivity to detect antiplatelet effects on PTFE grafts shown by ex vivo counting; leaves open its role in graft studies.
Nordestgaard et al. (1988) studied this question.
