Add a liquid to the blood that can't be transported out of the lining of the blood vessels. Give it time to spread through the body. Then, take a blood sample and measure the percentage of the liquid in the blood. From the result, the blood volume can be estimated.
total blood volume = ((1 - percentage)/percentage) x amount of liquid added
