A Flexible Scintillation Probe for Cardiac Output Determination

St. Louis, Missouri
San Francisco, California

ABSTRACT

It appears that the use of a flexible esophageal scintillation probe provides a useful instrument for the determination of the cardiac output in patients by means of the injection of radioactive serum albumin. The probe in its present form is easy to introduce into the esophagus of an adult or of a child older than about 5–6 years.
