Erratum to: Annals of Biomedical Engineering DOI 10.1007/s10439-012-0527-2
This erratum is to correct for a normalization factor that was not applied in the contour plots in Figure 10(b) of the published paper. The viscous shear stress (VSS) values were not normalized by the number of vector fields utilized for ensemble averaging (N = 50), hence the correct magnitudes of the VSS for all three valves should be smaller by a factor of 50 than the images presented in the original manuscript. However, the trends observed from the VSS, which are presented in the Results and Discussion sections of the paper, are not affected due to this error, since results from all three valve models are scaled by the same number of images (N = 50).
The corrected version of Fig. 10 is presented here. As such, all other figures in the original manuscript were verified to be correct.
