Synopsis
Measuring whole blood relaxation time is as a reliable diagnosis tool. Usually, one compartmental model is used to fit data, which seems a very simplistic approach considering the complexity of blood. The aim of this work is to test the validity of this assumption by studying the relaxation rate of whole blood, plasma and red blood cells (rbc) of rats at different temperatures. The whole blood is well described by a two-compartment approach, one corresponding to plasma and another for red blood cells. Once frozen, there is only one relaxation rate population, which is considered to be the rbc population.
