In order to study the diagnostic value of dynamic X-ray control and observation, 126 patients with rectal cancer were examined using lymphography. Metastatic lesions of regional lymph nodes after primary lymphographic examination were found in 20 (15.9%) patients. After dynamic X-ray observation, including repeated lymphography, metastases in regional lymph nodes were detected in 24 (19%) patients. The most appropriate terms for the production of control images and repeated lymphography have been determined.
