Zusammenfassung:	Systems and methods are provided for measuring blood volume of a living being using fluorescent dye. The present invention greatly simplifies the performance of a blood volume measurement by utilizing a novel fluorescent tracer. An injection and sampling kit for the performance of an indicator dilution measurement, comprising a) a labelled fluorescent injectate, and b) a plurality of collection cassettes, and a calibration kit comprising a plurality of calibrated standard cassettes of identical conformation to the cassettes in b), corresponding to known dilutions of the injectate (a).
