Schematic overview of the central blood volume compartment as determined by thermo-dye dilution. After injection of ice-cold indocyanine green in the right atrium, the dye dilution curves that are derived from the fiberoptic catheters placed in the pulmonary artery and ascending aorta, allow the calculation of PBV (green) and ITBV (blue and green combined.
