title: Regional blood flow and collateral circulation of the tongue in the dog studied by hydrogen polarography.
abstract: Regional lingual blood flow was measured by hydrogen polarography under control conditions and after the subsequent ligation of pertinent arteries in dogs. The results indicate a nonhomogeneous blood supply for the tongue and the existence of a complex collateral circulation in the lingual areas studied.
