(1) | ?????. ?????. Aviat Space Env Med. 1986;57:A11. Abstract #59. There was great concern in military circles when the report of right ventricular dilatation in fighter pilots was published. A NATO working group was convened to investigate the issue, but although I was in the fighter community until 1996, I have not heard more about the phenomenon. | |
