| Title | Unpublished paper, 'On the distal communication of the blood vessels with the lymphatics; and on a diaplasmatic system of the vessels' by Thomas Albert Carter |
| Creator | Carter; Thomas Albert (1834-1905); British physician |
| Date | 1864 |
| Description | Carter shares the results at which he has arrived concerning the distal intercommunication of the haemal with the lymphatic system by means of injections thrown into blood vessels. He also describes certain minute vessels and networks of vessels which can be shown by the same means to exist in certain mucous membranes and elsewhere, which he has named diaplasmatics.
Includes five pages of anatomical figures in coloured ink.
