                    Figure 26-23  •  A, Lateral and ventrodorsal (B) thoracic and partial abdominal images with widely disseminated uterine carcinoma. The lung

                    metastases are so numerous and coalesced that it is difficult or impossible to see individual lesions. Even the heart is totally obscured. For
                    its part, the abdomen is almost completely opaque, except for the air in the upper part of the stomach. The obvious distention is the result

                    of a large volume of peritoneal fluid caused by the tumor and its satellites.
