Abstract
A new Laser-Doppler microvelocimetering (LDMV) was developed to study blood flow in individual vessels in patients with coronary artery sten osis. The LDMV measures steady blood flow velocity, diameter of vessel s and pulsation flow. In addition, the effects of China's traditional herbs-Salvia Mitiorrhyza and other drugs-on the blood flow in the pati ents were investigated. LDMV constitutes a new quantitative procedure and is a promising tool for rapid monitoring of tissue perfusion in ca rdiovascular disease and estimating the action of drugs on microcircul ation.
