title: Endomyocardial biopsy in the dog.
abstract: A technique for transvenous endomyocardial biopsy of the right ventricular septum was modified from an existing procedure described in man and was applied in the dog. More than 120 procedures were performed in 36 dogs. One dog died, but lesions noticed at necropsy were not sufficient to establish the specific cause of death. Other fatalities or major complications were not encountered.
