Abstract: We prove the Gromov conjecture on the macroscopic dimension of the universal covering of a closed spin manifold with a positive scalar curvature under the following assumptions on the fundamental group: 1. The Strong Novikov Conjecture holds for $pi$. 2. The natural map $per:k{o}_n(Bpi)oK{O}_n(Bpi)$ is injective.
