Our single-channel laser-Doppler tissue blood flow monitor/perfusion monitoring
Uncompromised reliability in continuous tissue blood flow assessment
Ideally suited to measurements of changing tissue blood flow in acute experimental models
Overview
Perfusion by blood provides tissues with vital oxygen and nutrients, while removing waste products and distributing signaling molecules around the organism. The measurement of microvascular blood perfusion provides researchers with critical information in a number of research applications where blood supply has been disrupted.
Our blood flow monitors will be of interest therefore to life scientists wishing to directly and continuously measure local microvascular blood perfusion in in vivo models of ischemia-related disorders.
Our OxyFlo™ devices are laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) monitors intended for monitoring of relative microvascular blood flow in living tissues.
Most applications are concerned with monitoring the competence of regional (microvascular) blood supply in specialties such as:
Peripheral vascular disorders
Tumour perfusion monitoring / angiogenesis
Blood supply in free flaps and pedicle flaps
Shock monitoring
