title: [Dacrocystography. Paper I: A simplified catheter technique (author's transl)].
abstract: By using a PE-catheter for catheterising the tear ducts, dacrocystography becomes a simple and rapid investigation. It permits excellent morphological demonstration of pathological changes, since films can be obtained under screening control. A water-soluble, low viscosity contrast medium is recommended. Amongst more than 100 dacrocystograms, there were no serious complications.
