The dance along the artery The circulation on the lymph Are figured
in the drift of stars. T. S. Eliot Die Methode ist alles. Carl
Ludwig In physiology a spirit of finesse is required. Claude
Bernard Armed with modern Doppler instrumentation, scientists can
now quantify the red blood cell's "dance along the artery" as well
as "the drift of stars. " In disciplines of science and medicine
ranging from cardiology to astronomy, the Doppler principle now
provides invaluable velo city measurements in the microcosm of
capillary beds and in the cosmos. The newest appiication of the
ubiquitous Doppler principle, laser-Doppler velocimetry, has been
used to measure blood ftow in tissue for just a few years, but we
perceived that, like most new techniques, the birth of
laser-Doppler blood ftowmetry was not easy, nor was it likely to
pass through infancy and reach maturity without difficulty. In
physiology and medicine, better techniques for measur ing blood
ftow are constantly in demand, but they often exhibit an unfortun
ate boom-and-bust cyde: widespread acceptance and uncritical use
are soon xiii xiv Preface followed by studies delineating the
limits of the method's validity. The technique is then abandoned
for the next more fashionable one, thus proving Ludwig's dictum
that a given method is everything or nothing depending upon whether
one can believe the data it yields."
