Bone blood flow measurement. 1984

P Tothill

Methods of determining blood flow in bone are described and compared. Those based on clearances of bone-seeking tracers are inaccurate because of the variation of extraction with flow. The use of radioactive microspheres is the best available technique for measurements in animals; applications of this method are given. The washout of diffusible tracers is of limited use.

D001842 Bone and Bones A specialized CONNECTIVE TISSUE that is the main constituent of the SKELETON. The principal cellular component of bone is comprised of OSTEOBLASTS; OSTEOCYTES; and OSTEOCLASTS, while FIBRILLAR COLLAGENS and hydroxyapatite crystals form the BONE MATRIX.
