Pseudotumors due to pulmonary infarction [PDF]
The preferred treatment of pulmonary infarction is nonoperative when the diagnosis can be established. In the present study, five cases are described in which failure of resolution or growth of a radiographic density resulted in eventual thoracotomy and ...

Three-dimensional reconstruction of myocardial contrast perfusion from biplane cineangiograms by means of linear programming techniques [PDF]
The assessment of coronary flow reserve from the instantaneous distribution of the contrast agent within the coronary vessels and myocardial muscle at the control state and at maximal flow has been limited by the superimposition of myocardial regions of ...
