title: A simplified lead oxide cadaver injection technique.
abstract: A simple, inexpensive injectable substance is reported for analysis of the arterial circulation in fresh human or animal cadavers. The technique is a modification of that reported by Salmon in 1936 and utilizes lead oxide and gelatin. This combination is highly radiopaque; it perfuses the small radicles of the vascular tree and sets to a firm rubbery consistency to fascilitate dissection.
