Detection and Identification of Intracardiac Calcifications

J. E. HABBE M.D., F.A.C.R.

The detection of intracardiac calcifications constitutes a fascinating study for the radiologist who is seeing cardiac patients in the older age groups and who has the time and interest to make adequate fluoroscopic and radiographic examination of each patient coming to him.

While the importance of roentgenoscopy cannot be overemphasized, multiple, aimed, "spot," high-speed roentgenograms will increase the incidence of detection and identification of these calcifications. A simple technical procedure for accomplishing this end result is described and recommended.
