  • Title: Video dilution technique. An accurate measure of blood flow during routine arteriography.
    Author: Holcroft JW, Lantz BM, Foerster JM, Link DP.
    Journal: Arch Surg; 1980 Nov; 115(11):1299-303. PubMed ID: 7002103.
    Abstract:
    The video dilution technique for measuring blood flow consists of electronically and mathematically processing video-taped selective arteriograms to measure the flow in selectively catheterized arteries and to express this flow as a fraction of the flow in any reference artery. Flows were measured by video dilution and an electromagnetic flowmeter in ten dogs; the correlations were excellent. Video dilution flows were also measured in 105 patients. The technique is accurate, simple, and adds no risk to routine selective arteriography.
