title: The use of radioactive oxygen to study muscle function in peripheral vascular disease.
abstract: We have use 15O to study the relationship between blood flow and oxygen utilization in the limbs of patients with peripheral vascular diseases. This technique is noninvasive and provides a useful method of studying the function of ischemic limbs.
