Measurements of the distribution of blood volumes between the splanchnic and peripheral beds of dogs have been made. The splanchnic blood volume was found to be 21% of the total blood volume. The fractionation of the splanchnic blood volume between hepatic, splenic and mesenteric beds indicated that these contained approximately 30, 30 and 40%, respectively. There were certain difficulties which precluded precise measurement of the splanchnic fractions.
