[Diagnostic potential of ultrasound methods of studying the lymph nodes and indirect lymphoscintigraphy in lymphoproliferative diseases].

Ultrasonic and radionuclide investigations of the lymph nodes have been performed in 342 patients with malignant lymphoproliferative diseases. A comparative analysis of the data obtained by sonography and indirect lymphoscintigraphy has specified diagnostic spectrum of these procedures. The accuracy and specificity of sonography and broad-scale visualization secured by it dictate primary usage of the procedure as a screening test in initial examinations and as a control sensitive estimator of the on-going treatment efficacy.

[Gas exchange and blood circulation status in dogs following replacement of acute blood loss by perfluoro compound emulsions].

Blood circulation and gas exchange were examined after replacement of blood loss (50 ml/kg bw) in dogs by a preparation containing perfluorocompound (PFC) emulsion (20 v. %) and protein-salt solution (PSS) consisting of isotonic solution of electrolytes and donor's albumin, the final concentration of the latter in the preparation being equal to 5%. Animals with analogous blood loss replaced by PSS alone served as control.
