In a previous publication² the effect of embolism on the coronary circulation has been reported. In this paper we wish to report our observations on the effect of pulmonary embolism on the pulmonary vascular bed of the dog. Two hundred and sixty-three films were obtained of 48 dogs. The pulmonary vascular tree was first studied by injection of a barium sulfate suspension into the pulmonary conus distal to its ligature.
