Measurement of liver blood flow has been carried out by three different methods in 14 dogs to assess the accuracy of xenon-133 clearance following portal vein injection. Electromagnetic flowmetry with flow probes on the hepatic artery and portal vein resulted in a mean value of 121.9 +/- 39.3 ml min-1 100 g-1. An indicator dilution study utilizing chromium-51-labelled red cells gave a mean value of 119.4 +/- 31.4 ml min-1 100 g-1 and the xenon-133 clearance following portal vein injection, 120.3 +/- 33.8 ml min-1 100 g-1. One-way analysis of variance showed no statistically significant variation between these three groups. There was a close correlation between xenon-133 clearance and electromagnetic flowmetry and between xenon-133 clearance and the indicator dilution technique. These data suggest that xenon-133 clearance following portal vein injection gives an accurate assessment of liver blood flow and this technique (as well as direct parenchymal injection) can be adapted for clinical use.
