THE ANGIOGRAPHY OF HEMORRHAGE [PDF]
American Journal of Roentgenology, 1969 Acute active hemorrhage from an unknown site can lead dramatically and rapidly to irreversible shock.Immediate surgery is often correctly considered to be the only means to stop this hemorrhage. However, extensive surgery may be totally ineffective unless accurate, preoperative localization of the hemorhaging point is obtained.
