Summary
In summary, the vascular bed of the stomach is an area of great potential importance to both gastric and vascular physiologists. There are available many technics for its investigation. Simultaneous study of both hemodynamic and secretory phenomena can be conducted on the stomach. In the next few years information concerning the circulation of the stomach may help elucidate problems in the physiology and pathology of gastric secretion. Hightower observed recently: “The topic of visceral circulation, particularly as it pertains to the digestive tract, has not been commented upon in recent...Reviews of Physiology. This subject has become increasingly important in the past few years and is an area with which physiologists interested in the digestive system will become more and more concerned.”33
