  • Title: A method of intrarenal blood flow measurement using xenon-133 in the intact rat.
    Author: Butt TJ, Bolli P, Jones DR, Wallis AT, Simpson FO.
    Journal: Am J Physiol; 1979 Sep; 237(3):H395-9. PubMed ID: 382873.
    Abstract:
    A method is described for measuring distribution of intrarenal blood flow in anesthetized rats by a xenon-133 washout technique that avoids the trauma of opening the abdominal cavity and manipulating the kidney. Precise delivery of the tracer to the kidney and fine collimation of the radiation reduces the amount of tracer required. Washout curve analysis is achieved by a multifit computer program that accepts only count rates and time as input data.
