Abstract
Regional cerebral blood flow measurements in non anesthetized man are possible by means of the intra-arterial 133Xe injection method. After percutaneous puncture of the common carotid artery a catheter is placed in the internal carotid artery and the tracer rapidly injected. The wash-out of radioactivity is followed by multiple collimated external scintillation detectors. The random experimental error is 4 to 5% (1, 2).
