  • Title: Blood-flow measurement in muscle with Xe-133.
    Author: Chung SY, Kim I, Ryo UY, Maskin C, Pinsky S.
    Journal: Radiology; 1987 Nov; 165(2):571-2. PubMed ID: 3659387.
    Abstract:
    An alternative method to the conventional miniature probe system for the measurement of blood flow in muscle has been developed. Xenon-133 was injected into the quadriceps muscles of ten subjects. A gamma camera and an online computer were then used to measure the half-clearance time of the Xe-133 while the subject was both at rest and exercising on an upright bicycle ergometer. The blood flow in the muscle was then calculated from the acquired data.
