Scanning in hydatid disease.
Nine cases of hydatid disease are presented. CAT scans were done in each case. Radioisotope and ultrasound scans were also carried out in appropriate cases. CAT and ultrasound scans give characteristic appearances particularly when daughter cysts are present. CAT scans have the advantage of better resolution, and cyst density can be measured in terms of EMI units.

Gel foam embolization of a functioning pheochromocytoma.
For the first time, to our knowledge, a patient with a functioning pheochromocytoma was subjected to gel foam embolization for physiologic destruction of the tumor. The operation, 24 hours later, provided an uneventful anatomic removal of the infarcted tumor. Observation was considered as a possible alternative to surgical excision. Experience gained may allow testing of the validity of a nonoperative approach in selected cases.
