| Research Abstract |
In the present study, we compared effects of reduction of edema with three indices. Females participated in this experiment. All subjects measured 1)the cell inside and outside water ratio (I/E ratio), 2)ultrasonic image, 3)fingertip blood flow in the morning and the afternoon. It was difficult for slight edema to evaluate in the index of an ultrasonic image and a fingertip blood flow. I/E ratio in the afternoon decreased as compared with it in the morning. It was thought that it was necessary to choose using an index suitable for the evaluation purpose.
