Sir, In a recent technical note, Zanen et al. reported poor agreement between different Doppler flow measurements in dialysis shunts, such as conventional Doppler (CD), quantitative colour velocity index (CVI-Q) and ultrasound dilution (DU) w1x. In particular, results of CD measurements did not correlate with those obtained with CVI-Q and DU, respectively. We share the experience of the investi...

The cellular composition of the granulocytic series in normal human bone marrow was studied in aspirates of different volume. An increase in the proportion of polymorphonuclears was observed in samples of more than 1 ml, thus indicating a dilution of bone marrow by peripheral blood. Certain data from the literature, referring to the differential count in the bone marrow granulocytic series, are...

The possibility of measuring pulmonary blood flow in patients with central arteriovenous shunts utilizing the initial portion of indicator-dilution curves was explored in 16 patients by comparing these values for pulmonary blood flow with determinations by the direct Fick method. A good correlation between Fick and indicator-dilution values was obtained, and no systematic differences were demon...
