Abstract
An approximate expression for the average concentration of oxygen in vascular tissue is derived on the basis of certain assumptions. These assumptions are then analyzed, and the inadequacies of the approximate derivation are pointed out; possibilities as to the method and results of more exact derivations are briefly discussed.
