We have studied the subcellular distribution of ferritin in inflammatory macrophages present in regional lymph nodes from dogs subjected to a pulmonary inflammatory reaction. The inflammatory reaction was induced by intrabronchial instillation of calcium tungstate (CaWO4), a water-insoluble powder. Ferritin

Various methods have been proposed and investigated for the purpose of reducing radiation exposures in cephalometric radiography. The purpose of this investigation was to use various dose-reducing methods from four major categories--(1) rare-earth intensifying screens, (2) rare-earth filtration, (3) prepatient
