Intracoronary Saline‐Induced Hyperemia During Coronary Thermodilution Measurements of Absolute Coronary Blood Flow: An Animal Mechanistic Study

Background Absolute hyperemic coronary blood flow and microvascular resistances can be measured by continuous thermodilution with a dedicated infusion catheter. We aimed to determine the mechanisms of this hyperemic response in animal. Methods and Results Twenty open chest pigs were instrumented wit...
