Abstract
Venous velocities, measured by an injn. of Na24Cl is equal in both legs with subsequent studies showing fluctuation by about 25% of the initial flow rate. The flow rate is halved in the standing or sitting posture and doubled with the subject in the head-downward posture or after vigorous dorsi- and plantar-flexion of the foot.Keywords
