Abstract

An in-vitro characterization of an NMR limb blood flowmeter was performed to evaluate the effects of various parameters on the NMR signal. An in-vivo study of the steady and pulsatile component of arterial blood flow was performed using a Doppler ultrasound flowmeter. Finally, an in-vivo study of the reactive hyperemic response of normal adult subjects was performed using an NMR limb blood flowmeter.
