title: [Diagnostic angiography in mediastinal and pulmonary diseases].
abstract: The angiographic methods employed in chest surgery are reviewed and their value is demonstrated on practical examples. In certain cases angiography is the only means of arriving to the correct diagnosis and its result often determines the course of therapy. Angiographic methods are claimed to be equivalent to the classical diagnostic procedures applied in pulmonology and their wide-spread use is recommended.
