[Value of tomodensitometry in the diagnosis of lumbar disk hernias].

The authors relate their experiences concerning tomodensitometric examination to evaluate the herniation of a disk. 45 patients and 50 herniations of a disk have been studied. 39 herniations have sustained surgical procedures. The tomodensitometric examination and the radiculosaccography have been performed among these patients in order to compare the findings. The fact that there has only been 3 failures prove the reliability of tomodensitometric examination; among these failure there is 2 post-operative recurrences and one L4 L5 herniation. The radiculosaccography fails 5 times (1 L4 L5 herniation and 4 L5 S1 herniations). There is not any common negative in the two methods. Because of its total innocuity (no injection of any kind) the tomodensitometric examination seems to be the first exploration to prescribe when an herniation of a disk is resistant to clinical treatment and when a surgery is planned.

[Effect of availability of computer tomography on activity in an emergency neuroradiological department (author's transl)].

Overall activity in an emergency neuroradiological department was altered when computed tomography facilities became available, as shown by comparative studies conducted during one year without and one year with the use of this investigational method. More examinations were conducted during the year the apparatus was available, and the diagnostic approach to patients with head or brain injuries was modified, computed tomography replacing the arteriography used as an initial examination during the first year. These findings can be related to the rapidity, safety, and diagnostic precision of computed tomography examinations.

Jugular venous reflux in cerebral radionuclide angiography: an explanation.

A case of isotopic jugular venous reflux, reaching the opposite jugular vein, is described. Phlebography and aortography were simultaneously performed in this patient and showed the innominate vein narrowed and pinched between the sternal notch and the aortic arch. This narrowing depends on the position of the left arm.
