A CLINICAL TRIAL OF X-RAY CINE-STERIC MACRORADIOGRAPHY

Abstract

Cardiac disorders due to myocardial infarction, coronary arterial disease and other causes are increasing year by year. Thus there is a keen demand for improvements in diagnostic ability of the cardiovascular roentgenographic system. We took macrograph using a tube for high performance cine-radiography (focus : 0.6×0.6 mm) and obtained good results on both MTF and scattered rays. The compilation of cine-films stereographed with an I. I. tube-moving technique and the observation of the films using a PLZT electron shutter made the stereopicture of animal body viewable.
