Abstract:In this study a hind leg of dogs was profoundly cooled while the gracilis muscle of the same leg was kept normothermic or slightly hyperthermic (37 to 39 øC) by microwave heating (differential hypothermia). The circulation (measured by trapping of Technetium Tc 99 labelled carbonized microspheres in capillaries) through the warmed muscle tissues was five to 12 times greater than that through the cold muscles of the same leg. When differential hypothermia was used to induce selective embedding of (y9o) Yttrium-… Show more
