Figure 4

Comparison of flow curves with and after without phase correction. Data from three volunteers (nr 5, 6 and 8) were analyzed before as well as after phase background correction. This figure shows the resulting flow curves. The data from the three volunteers are shown by red circles, blue triangles and green diamonds, respectively. Filled symbols denote data after background phase correction, and the empty symbols are data before background correction. Note that all cases were analytically corrected for Maxwell effects. It is clear that the background correction reduces phase, and thus reduces the flow compared to the uncorrected data.
