Serial measurement of cerebral blood flow using external counting of microspheres

TA McCalden

Described is a modified method of measuring organ blood flow which combines the serial injection of a standard dose of microspheres and the external counting of their gamma activity when they are distributed to the tissues. The method produces similar results to measurements of grey matter blood flow by the clearance of 133xenon.
