Pulmonary sequestration diagnosed by multidetector computed tomographic angiography.
A 58-year-old man presented with persistent lung mass (Fig. 1). Pulmonary sequestration was diagnosed with multidetector CT angiography (MDCT) (Fig. 2). Advantages of MDCT over conventional angiography include its non-invasive nature, improved resolution and delineation of vasculature, 3D renderings, shorter acquisition time, and less exposure to radiation. Fig. 1. Computed tomography of the ch...
متن کاملMultidetector-Row Computed Tomography Coronary Angiography
onsiderable progress has recently been achieved in the field of noninvasive imaging of the coronary arteries by computed tomography (CT). Multidetector-row CT (MDCT) scanners are equipped with thinner detectors and have a shorter rotation time, which enables considerably faster volume coverage with a thinner slice width during a single breath hold. The entire heart volume can be covered with ne...
متن کاملImaging of intracoronary thrombus by multidetector helical computed tomography angiography.
An 83-year-old woman presented to the emergency department with a 2-hour history of sudden chest pain and dyspnea. An initial ECG demonstrated nonspecific ST changes, and a portable chest x-ray suggested a widened mediastinum. A thoracic multidetector helical computed tomography (CT) angiogram was obtained to assess the possibility of aortic dissection (GE LightSpeed Plus, 2.5-mm collimation wi...
متن کاملMultiple renal arteries: variations demonstrated by multidetector computed tomography angiography.
OBJECTIVE To present a case of a rare variation of the renal artery and multiple (7) renal arteries by multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) angiography. CLINICAL PRESENTATION AND INTERVENTION A 36-year-old male patient was admitted to our hospital as a potential living donor for renal transplantation. An MDCT angiography was performed using a 16-detector row CT scanner to obtain a detaile...
متن کاملNoninvasive assessment of coronary artery stenoses by multidetector-row spiral computed tomography: comparison with conventional angiography.
BACKGROUND Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most common cause of hospitalization and mortality in many industrialized countries. We analysed the diagnostic accuracy of multi-detector row spiral computed tomography (MDCT) in determining mid- to high-grade coronary artery stenoses (> 50%). METHODS Sixty-nine patients with suspected CAD were referred to MDCT coronary angiography. Patients wi...
