Electromagnetic blood flowmeters and flow probes: theoretic and practical considerations. 1978

E A Scott, and G A Sandler

Electromagnetic blood flowmeters and flow probes are used to measure blood flow in blood vessels throughout the circulatory system. The principle of this measuring device is based on laws of electromagnetic induction discovered in the 19th century. The instrument has been predominantly used in research, but is presently used in human cardiovascular units to measure blood flow in blood vessels, and in prosthesis in conjection with cardiovascular surgical procedures. Electromagnetic flow equipment provides the most accurate measurement (in vivo) of blood flow available, both for acute and chronic implants. This report presents some of the theoretic and practical considerations for effective use of this instrument.
