May confound inert gas perfusion estimates in muscle; leaves open translation from feline models to human physiology.
In an isolated cat skeletal muscle model, 133 Xenon is shunted by diffusion from arterial to venous blood, with an estimated shunted fraction of 11%.
Sejrsen et al. (1972) studied this question.
