Rotational angiography in monitoring of covered CP stent implantation in patient with critical aortic coarctation and patent ductus arteriosus

In presented case rotational angiography with three dimensional reconstruction (3DRA) was used for diagnostic and control angiograms during covered CP stent implantation in patient with critical aortic coarctation and patent ductus arteriosus. Administering less contrast then for standard two perpendicular projections, good quality images were obtained in at least seven projections.     

Museum,Bibliothek und Archiv der DGU als Corporate-Museum

Corporate museums make important contributions to science history and daily life. They are an essential part of the historical marketing of organizations, including scientific associations. The museum for the history of urology organized and housed by the German Society of Urology (DGU) can be compared to a corporate museum, because the institution serves two purposes: it represents the society to a wider public and it helps to reconstruct and analyze the history of urology and the history of the society. In a close collaboration with medical historians from all over the world the museum serves as a research institution for the history of urology. The institution is founded at the frontier between a commercial corporate museum similar to that of international companies and a classical scientific museum. The paper describes these aspects of the museum and discusses the inherent value of a museum for a scientific association.
