Oxygen Transport to Tissue XX (Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology) (v. 20)

''In addition to a wide variety of traditional oxygen transport topics, particular areas have been selected for emphasis at the 1997 meeting, which are:

• Molecular and genetic techniques to study oxygen transport in health and disease
• Angiogenesis during hypoxia, ischemia, and development
• Physiological mechanisms of oxygen sensing
• Physiological fluctuations of cerebral blood flow, metabolism and oxygenation
• Near infrared and phsophorescence techniques for the assessment of blood and tissue oxygenation
• Advances in biotechnology of anticoagulants and blood substitutes.
