Cutaneous and subcutaneous blood flow measurement in rabbit's ear by epicutaneous diffusion of xenon 133. Influence of the arteriovenous anastomosis]

The cutaneous and subcutaneous blood flow measurement by a diffusible inert gas concerns theorically capillary nutritional flow. In clinical routine, where pathological openning of arteriovenous anastomosis is suspected, the blood flows measured by Xenon technic are often increased. The function of the shunts are displayed on the epuration curve obtained on a region where there are numerous: rabbit's ear.
