In the study of certain prime Noetherian rings it is natural to consider the set C of elements which are regular modulo all height-1 prime ideals of R. For R commutative, this set C is simply the set of units. In general this is not the case, though with certain additional conditions we can state non-commutative versions of the Principal Ideal Theorem.
