Correction: Revised Figure Legends

Corrections: Revised Figure Legends

In a recent article on localization of insulinomas [1], the legends for (Figure 2 and Figure 3) should be revised as follows. In the legend for Figure 2, the word "gradients" in the sentence "Although the gradients in the left hepatic vein (bottom) are substantial, the elevations of insulin levels in the right hepatic vein are higher ... than those in the left hepatic vein ..." should be changed to "elevations of plasma insulin levels." In the legend for Figure 3, the sentence "Although the 30-second gradient is higher in the splenic vein, this is considered a nonlocalizing study" should read "Although the 30-second elevation of insulin levels in the right hepatic vein is higher after calcium is injected into the splenic artery than after it is injected into the gastroduodenal artery, this is considered a nonlocalizing study."
