title: A new technique for measuring blood flow in polytetrafluorethylene grafts for hemodialysis.
abstract: A method has been described for the measurement of blood flow in non branching grafts using the isotope dilution principle. The technique is simple, reproducible and consistent and can be performed in less than ten minutes.
