Abstract

We report on the use of dental x-ray equipment for micro-arteriography in 18 rat arterial anastomoses. Our experience has shown that an exposure of 70 kV, at 7mA, for 0.17 seconds, gives excellent results. This is an easy and useful technique for evaluating the patency and stenosis of microvascular anastomoses.
