[Flow measurements in the major visceral arteries (author's transl)]
Abstract:
Arterial flow was measured by the spill-over technique in 202 coeliac arteries and 158 superior mesenteric arteries during the course of visceral angiography in 250 patients. In the coeliac artery a mean value of 15.8 +/- 4.3 ml/sec was obtained, flow in the super mesenteric artery was significantly less at 12.1 +/- 3.4 ml/sec. The wide variation from 4 to 26 ml/sec in the coeliac artery was remarkable, as well as flows from six to 20 ml/sec in the superior mesenteric artery.
