Abstract:
The technical factors of microangiography were studied, and the authors found that the main limiting factors in resolution were the injection pressure of the contrast medium and the thickness of the materials. A gentle manual hand pressure injection, with the aid of visual monitoring under the operating microscope, were keys to obtaining beautiful microangiograms.
