Canine bone blood flow estimated with microspheres

Blood flow rate in the periosteal and endosteal cortices of the diaphysis of long bones was determined in eight anesthetized adult dogs using the radioactively labeled microsphere method. The flow rate in endosteal and periosteal cortices is not significantly different unless the endosteal cortex contains cancellous bone from the medullary cavity. The highest flow rate is in the ulna, with 6.50 ml/min/100 g for the endosteal cortex and 5.15 ml/min/100 g for the periosteal cortex. The lowest flow rate is in the femur, with 2.89 ml/min/100 g for the endosteal cortex and 2.29 ml/min/100 g for the periosteal cortex. The results of this study indicate that variation of blood flow does exist between bones of dogs. However, the flow rates of individual bone on the left and right sides in the same dog are not significantly different. This indicates that the data are reproducible and reliable, and differences are not an inaccuracy of the radioactively labeled microsphere method. The results also demonstrate that there are no significant differences in bone blood flow as measured with small numbers (fewer than 400 microspheres per sample) and large numbers (more than 400 microspheres per sample) of microspheres. The adequate number of microspheres in each bone sample is 150–250. Therefore, a dose of 0.5 × 106 spheres/kg body weight can be sufficient.
