  "abstract": "Mass shifts $\\Delta m$ of particles in nuclear matter relative to their vacuum values are considered. A general formula relating $\\Delta m(E)$ ($E$ is the particle energy) to the real part of the forward particle-nucleon scattering amplitude ${\\rm Re} f(E)$ is presented and its applicability domain is formulated. The $\\rho$-meson mass shift in nuclear matter is calculated at $2\\la E_{\\rho}\\la 7$ GeV for transversally and longitudinally polarized $\\rho$-mesons with the results: $\\Delta m_{\\rho}^T \\sim 50$ MeV and $\\Delta m_{\\rho}^L \\sim 10$ MeV at normal nuclear density.",
