  1. Non Imaging In Vivo Plasma Volume

  2. Plasma Volume • Usually performed in conjunction with RBC Volume. • It also aids in the diagnosis of polycythemia • Occasionally it is performed for fluid balance

  3. Plasma Volume • The technique for measuring plasma volume is similar to that for RBC Volume. • I125 RISA or HAS • I125 labeled to albumin • I125 has an energy of 32keV • Thus plasma volume is performed prior to RBC volume, Cr 51 has an energy of 320 keV

  4. Technique for Plasma Volume • Recommended to administer Lugol’s solution 4-5 days, everyday prior to administration of I125 • Prevents thyroid uptake of Iodine • Inject 10-20 uCi in a 1.5 ml volume into the contralateral arm that samples will be drawn. • Count syringe in well counter to get CPM • Post injection count empty syringe • Withdraw three 15 ml blood samples at 15, 25, and 35 minutes post injection. • Centrifuge samples and divide into 5 ml aloquats.

  5. Formula for Calculating PV PL Volume = (Full syringe - empty syringe) x CF Patient counts per sample drawn CF = cpm/ml from 5 ml volume x 2000 cpm from syringe above well CF is predetermined and maintained using specific procedure that may vary according to department or manufacturer.

  6. Total Blood Volume • Total Blood Volume can be calculated after the plasma volume has been determined. • TBV = PL Volume 1 - (Hct x 0.97 x 0.91) • 1 - (Hct x 0.97 x 0.91) is equal to the corrected PLcrit • The correction factor is needed due to the F-cell ratio. This is the relationship between venous hematocrit and the whole blood hematocrit. The hematocrit of smaller vessels differs from that of larger vessels.

  7. Formula Calculations • Plasma Volume (mL)= Net Standard Count x 4000 Net Plasma Count • WB Volume (mL)=Net Standard Count x 4000 Net Whole Blood Count • RC Volume (mL) = Whole Blood Volume - Plasma Volume • Radioactive Hematocrit = Red Cell Volume Whole Blood Volume

  8. Recalculating Plasma Counts • Approximately 10% of the injected plasma dose will leak out of the vascular pool per hour. Therefore a correction must be applied. • Take two separate blood samples form the patient and extrapolate the data. • 10 minutes = 20.5k • 20 minutes = 16.5k • Extrapolate to 0 time = 26k

  9. Normal Findings • Males and females 30 - 45 ml/kg

  10. Increased PV Primary aldosteronism Due to reduced blood flow to kidneys Cushing’s Disease Due to edema Splenomegally Can’t destroy damaged cells Starvation Waldenstrom’s macroglobulinemia Malignant disorder, one symptom is bleeding disorders Decreased PV Addison’s Disease Possible dehydration Bacteremia Bacteria take up part of plasma volume Burns Loss of fluid from burned area Dehydration Polycythemia Shock, hemorrhage, and trauma Sodium deficiency Responsible for regulating water balance Condition Evaluations

  11. Errors in PV • Not getting the nuclide in the vein • Wrong hematocrit Return to the Table of Content
