β¦ Synopsis
Hepatic blood flow was measured in 28 patients in supine and prone positions using the 133Xe-inhalation washout method. Even though the reactions in individual patients were considerably different, a mean blood flow of 60.9 ml/100 g/rain was unaltered in both positions. This constancy of hepatic blood flow values is valid for patients without liver disease, with chronic hepatitis, and with liver cirrhosis.

Background. Conflicting results have been obtained regarding blood flow distribution to liver tumors. The emphasis on portal vein perfusion has had a great impact on the design of treatment protocols. Methods. Double microsphere technique with reference organ sampling was used for the measurement o
## Abstract The blood flow in an experimental adenocarcinoma in the rat liver was determined with the ^133^Xeβwashout technique before and after hepatic artery ligation (HAL). There was an initial reduction of the washout of 50%. This was further reduced after 1 day by 50%, which was maintained for
