MEASUREMENT OF INTRACARDIAC AND INTRAVASCULAR BLOOD VELOCITY

Abstract

The construction of a flowmeter catheter and the associated electronic circuitry is presented. In vitro tests indicate that the electronic cir cuitry is functioning as expected, although some modifications will be necessary in the actual transducer tip to make the system compatible.
