Emulsion system of perfluorocarbon compounds — David M. Long, Professor of Surgery, Medical Center, inventor; developed under the sponsorship of the 3M Company, By mixing liquid perfluorocarbon with existing diluted emulsions, it was possible to make very viscous emulsions with volume ratios of 12:1 and even 15:1. These emulsions proved to be most effective in outlining the tracheobronchial tree, particularly the 12:1 and 10:1 emulsions. The 15:1 emulsion was very viscous.
