what does an eveluation of perfusion involve

Solution

common method include evalution of body\'s skin color, temperature, condition (dry/soft/firm/swollen/sunken/etc), and capillary refill.

advance method for measurement of perfusion involves

1.MRI - an contrast agent is injected in blood which can be monitored by MRI

2.CT - Brain perfusion can be estimated with contrast-enhanced computed tomography

3. Thermal diffusion - total thermal diffusion can be separated into thermal conductivity and perfusion components

4.Nuclear medicine - Perfusion of tissues can be measured with nuclear medicine methods which are commonly positron emission tomography (PET) and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)
