Twenty-five cases of massive pulmonary hemorrhage were evaluated by arteriography. Either pulmonary or selective bronchial arteriography or both were performed to confirm or corroborate the clinical diagnosis. In 16 patients, gelfoam embolization of the bronchial artery was effective in causing immediate cessation of the hemorrhage. Only two of the 16 patients had recurrent pulmonary hemorrhage...

results color doppler usg had a sensitivity of 95% and specificity of 98% in diagnosis of arterial injury. positive and negative predictive values of doppler usg were 92.5% and 94.2%, respectively. conclusions color doppler usg can be used as a reliable modality with acceptable sensitivity and specificity values to screen hemodynamically stable patients with limb trauma suspicious for arterial ...

A computerized fluoroscopic apparatus developed by members of the University of Wisconsin Medical Physics Section was used for 12 months to perform intravenous video arteriography. In previous papers, the apparatus was described and its use was illustrated for performing time subtraction intravenous video arteriography of the extracranial carotid arteries, the arteries of the abdomen and extrem...

The results of coronary arteriography, exercise, and pacing stress testing in 50 young patients with mild angina are analysed. There was a significant correlation between the results of stress tests and the secerity of disease. There were, however, patients with severe disease and negative tests. Fifty-six per cent of patients had disease which potentially could have been surgically treated. It...

A prospective, clinical study was performed on patients with suspected carotid artery disease to compare the accuracy of compression and suction ophthaimodynamometry with carotid artery stenosis as determined by arteriography. Results were analyzed with respect to current criteria for classification and determination of "significant" carotid artery disease. Although our results suggest that the...

THE ROBB-STEINBERG method of visualization of the cardiovascular system by the rapid intravenous injection of concentrated organic iodides and precise roentgenography has been available since 1938.'Recently, modification of the method by the rapid, simultaneous, and bilateral injection of concentrated contrast media after accurate prediction of the circulation time has achieved abdominal aortog...

The risk of coronary arteriography is considerably increased in patients who have left main coronary artery stenosis (LMCAS). Among 1,060 patients undergoing coronary arteriography over a three-year period, 83 were found to have LMCAS and three of these patients died (3.6 percent) during or shortly after the arteriographic procedure. Bypass surgery, however, can now be carried out at a very low...
