Abstract
In order to study the distribution of blood flow in diseased human kidneys, Xe133 washout curves were obtained from 34 patients with chronic renal disease or hypertension. The curves recorded for over 45min. were resolved into 4 components, while the curves recorded for 30min. showed 3 components. The values of components I, II and III in the 30min. record coincided with those of the components I, the average of II and III, and IV in the 45min. record, respectively. The percentage of the total renal blood flow (flow ratio) distributed to the component I of the 30min. record was correlated with that due to cortical blood flow as determined by the dye-dilution method. It is suggested that the component I of the Xe133 washout curve from the human kidney represents the cortical blood flow. © 1970, International Heart Journal Association. All rights reserved.
