Comparison of laser speckle contrast imaging and laser-Doppler fluxmetry in boys and men

ConclusionsLSCI presented with higher values than LDF during rest, PORH, and exercise; the disparity between the two measures was larger as blood flow increased. The assessments were generally consistent, both methods appear to provide usable data for the assessment of microvascular reactivity in both boys and men. There are biases to each method and the data are not interchangeable between LDF and LSCI.
