This book is not meant to be a textbook or a handbook of
phlebography of the lower limbs. It is an atlas aimed only at
teaching one how to read an interpret phlebograms, and is of
considerable importance as it represents the standard investigatory
method used to check the reliability of other diagnostic methods
concerning venous circulation. Regarding diagnosis, nothing is more
certain than the phlebographic demonstration of a thrombus;
moreover, even if the thrombus is not demonstrable, as in certain
phlebites. it is still possible to establish the diagnosis with
adequate knowledge of the radio anatomy of the non-opacified veins
and the demonstration of marked collateral circulation. Therefore
this investigation must be carried out very carefully with
particular attention to interpretation. The technique was first
used in man in 1923 and is now employed world wide; better
tolerated contrast materials render it almost innocuous; the
occurrence of very few incidences of non-tolerance does not
diminish the value of this method. We have purposely reduced the
text to legends of the illustration and withheld the bibliography
in so far as it is meant to be a teaching program by way of
pictures without any reference to past or present publications.
