Abstract
The report reviews individual-related variables (age, sex, race, anato mical site), intra- and interindividual variation (temporal, physical and mental activity, food and drugs), and environment-related variable s (air convection, temperature). Technical variation, instrument valid ation including a standard reactive hyperemia experiment, and a standa rd operating procedure are discussed and included in the guidelines. ( C) Munksgaard, 1994.
