Evaluation of Laser-Doppler-Fluxmetry for the diagnosis of microcirculatory disorders

摘要

BACKGROUND: The laser Doppler fluxmetry (LDF) is a non-invasive method to assess skin blood perfusion, measuring the flow of blood cells inside a tissue volume without harming the tissue. In the diagnosis of skin circulation disorders, the results of the LDF measurement are generally used in such a way that "normal" (or non-ill) or "pathological" values are achieved by comparison with a reference sample, for example of apparently healthy subjects.
