Abstract
Laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) and transcutaneous CO2 tension measurements (PtcCO2) were performed on fingers of healthy volunteers subjected to a sequence of hydrostatic and thermal stimuli. LDF response using an unheated probe agreed well with measurements made with 133Xe clearance and strain gauge plethysmography in a previous work. The PtcCO2 results did not reflect changes in skin blood flow.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
