Liver Microcirculation and Hepatobiliary Function: 11th Bodensee Symposium on Microcirculation, Bad Schachen, June 1992: 19 (Progress in Applied Microcirculation, 19) - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

The anatomical location of the liver and the unique characteristics of its arterial and portal venous blood supply have posed problems for those studying blood flow and regulatory mechanisms in hepatic microcirculation. In recent years, new techniques for the assessment of both local blood supply and liver function have been advanced by various groups around the world. This publication, reporting on the 11th Bodensee Symposium on Microcirculation, presents the latest research efforts using a variety of new tools in conjunction with fluorescence microscopy. Of special interest are the many new findings on ischemia and reperfusion, which have significant implications for liver surgery, the liver in shock and liver transplantation in particular. Summaries of the discussion sessions are also included. The book contains valuable information for microcirculation researchers and all those interested in liver microcirculation and hepatobiliary transport phenomena and function.
