| Comments | P.274 3rd paragraph: "In general the values for physical properties shown in Table 105 have been transferred directly from Chapter 1. The values for content of blood and gross components have been calculated on the basis of concentrations given in that section. Each column of Table 105 contains a value and information about how the value was chosen or calculated. This is most often the page of Chapter 1 on which the value or the concentration from which the value was calculated appears, but occasionally a value has been estimated (est.) or based on another value. For example, values of gross content for cerebrum, cerebellum, and brain stem have been based on the values for brain. The weight of aorta has been estimated from its dimensions." |
