title: Patterns in 51chromium red cell survival and sequestration studies.
abstract: Patients with haemolytic anaemias of different etiologies were investigated using the 51Cr red cell survival and surface counting technique. The study provided definitive information regarding the presence of a haemolytic process and was found useful in the estimation of the rate as well as in the demonstration of the principal site of red cell destruction. The study also proved valuable in predicting the response to splenectomy.
