[Stereoroentgenology in endourology].

Three-dimensional stereofluoroscopic pictures of the kidney and renal calyces were first used for percutaneous renal surgery with a laboratory prototype equipment. The grid-controlled X-ray tube provides sequential images, which are separated into pairs by digital image processing and storage and can be seen on a 3-D display unit. This method allows exact and rapid puncture of a suitable calyx for percutaneous nephrolithotomy, shortens the learning process for the endourologist, reduces the radiation exposure, and thus makes the method safer.

Tomoscopy: dynamic layer imaging without mechanical movements.

A tomographic system in which electronic movement of the x-ray source and the image receptor replace the mechanical movement of conventional tomography has been constructed and tested. Because the system permits very short, rapidly repeated exposures, viewing by television provides real-time fluoroscopic tomography, termed tomoscopy. Further, electronic adjustment of tomographic layer height permits rapid direct search for the optimum layer. The system requires no more than conventional fluoroscopic radiation levels and resolves 3 line pairs per millimeter (LP/mm) in the televised image and 4 LP/mm in the spot film images. It offers rapid, highly customized, high-resolution tomography under direct fluoroscopic control. Precise percutaneous biopsy with integrated needle-controlled equipment and tomography of contrast-filled blood vessels incorporating digital subtraction principles are theoretic possibilities.

[Tomoscopy].

UNLABELLED: Report on initial clinical experience with a new form of tomography with fluoroscopy, called 'tomoscopy'. PRINCIPLE: Several grid controlled x-ray tubes firmly mounted (stationary) in circular fashion -- with the foci in equidistance -- are fired in sequential fashion for a short exposure, which creates the impression of tube movement mandatory in conventional tomography, by this sequential firing of several tubes (in 1/50 second total), the mechanical tube motion of conventional tomography can be avoided. In the image intensifier, there is synchronous electromagnetic deflection of the image between input- and output screen; and a tomographic image can be seen at the output screen. This can also be recorded on camera. This new technique allows quick fluoroscopic determination of the ideal 'cut' and thus provides efficient tomography without slowing down the ongoing examination; and it is a useful addition to modern radiographic equipment with image intensification, especially when used with contrast material. Its full future impact on diagnostic radiology can yet not be estimated.
