A minimally invasive method for measuring and analyzing lung transvascular protein flux would be useful for diagnosing and monitoring patients with lung injury. We have developed a method which detects movement of radiolabeled albumin from plasma to lung interstitium using sodium iodide detectors that are located outside the body, and positioned over the lung. The technique is similar to methods reported by Gorin (1,2), Prichard and Lee (3,4), and Dauber et al. (5).
