Popis: The pulmonary blood flow in patients with embolism, emphysema or a tumour of the lung was measured by videodensitometry in 27 lungs from 17 patients. The results suggest that the relative regional and total lung blood flow can easily be estimated. It is also easy to demonstrate abnormalities in the distribution of the lung blood flow. The mean transit time in the normal lung is considered to be 1.5 to 4 seconds.
