A new technique utilizing the television monitored image amplified fluoroscopic image for densitometric evaluation and blood flow analysis is described.
Using the television system as a sampling device, the dilution of radiographic contrast material following injection can be computed and the flow rate within the vessel determined. Accuracy of the order of 10-15 per cent can be expected.
The measurement requires no change in the techniques of the arterial visualization utilized by most departments.
