Clinical application of laser doppler flowmetry in neurology
2012, Perspectives in MedicineCitation Excerpt :Registration of initial skin perfusion in controlled standard laboratory conditions is measured at first with the natural superficial skin temperature of the patient and then the perfusion is recommended to be measured at 32–33° Celsius superficial skin temperature in order to make skin perfusion at a definite site between different persons comparable. The accuracy and sensitivity of LDF is improved by applying standardized functional tests [8]. Monitoring of microvascular responses to autonomic vasomotor stimuli is a recognized method for functional diagnosis and assessment of peripheral dysautonomy and function of small unmyelinated autonomic fibers [9].
The Effect of Gua Sha Treatment on the Microcirculation of Surface Tissue: A Pilot Study in Healthy Subjects
2007, Explore: The Journal of Science and HealingCitation Excerpt :In this sense, our study establishes—at least with Gua Sha—that there are actual changes in microcirculation PUs with what has been observed, somatically experienced, and termed increased circulation. The modern technology of laser Doppler scanning is well established as a measure of surface microcirculation in two-dimensional patterns of perfusion,112 with clinical applications in evaluating patients with diabetes,113 diabetic neuropathy,115 chronic venous insufficiency,116 and venous ulcers,117,118 as well as assessing superficial tissue function before and after surgery,119,120 or for example, in determining the depth of burns,121 diagnosing complex regional pain syndrome,122 or assessing the level of peripheral arterial occlusive disease123 or circulatory compromise in sympathetic dystrophies.124 Laser Doppler imaging has been shown to be reproducible and reliable as a standard of measure in vivo.108
