Describes a successful technique for selective catheterization of individual coronary arteries in intact dogs, enabling intracoronary injections of pharmacologic agents or radio-opaque materials.
A technic is described for selective catheterization of individual coronary arterial branches in intact dogs by means of special catheters which permit intracoronary injections of pharmacologic agents or radio-opaque materials. All the main coronary arteries (right, left anterior descending, left circumflex) have been successfully catheterized and injected, both alone and in combination.
West et al. (Thu,) studied this question.
