Determination of the regional cochlear blood flow in the rat cochlea using non-radioactive microspheres and serially
Hearing Research
|November 1, 1984
Abstract:
The regional blood flow to the rat cochlea has been studied using a method which combines the microsphere method with observation of serially-sectioned, plastic-embedded cochleas. Direct quantitation of the microspheres in a reference blood sample and in the different vascular areas of the cochlea allows the analysis of blood flow patterns with respect to the different capillary beds.
