Measuring Blood Flow in Rats
Innovative Tools and Techniques |
|
|
|
|
The development of small ultrasonic transit-time flowprobes has enabled blood flow measurement in the small vessels of the rat. The flowprobes demonstrate measurement
stability and high resolution. Hundreds of rat studies have been published using Transonic flowprobes. Below are the protocols and technical notes included in the popular
workbook, "Fundamental Techniques for Hemodynamic Studies in the Rat (4th edition, 1996)." To receive your free copy of the workbook, please contact Customer
