CAPILLARY PERMEABILITY OF HETEROGENEOUS ORGANS: A PARSIMONIOUS INTERPRETATION OF INDICATOR DIFFUSION DATA

Abstract

1. Calculations of capillary permeability of perfused organs from indicator diffusion data are reviewed, and reconsidered in terms of two kinds of organ heterogeneity of capillary extraction. 2. New expressions are derived for calculating the organ permeability-surface area product PS. In the simplest circumstances.
