متن کاملPulmonary 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 کاملPULMONARY VASCULATURE Computed tomographic pulmonary angiography and prognostic significance in patients with acute pulmonary embolism
Background: Patients with acute pulmonary embolism (APE) present with a broad spectrum of prognoses. Computed tomographic pulmonary angiography (CTPA) has progressively been established as a first line test in the APE diagnostic algorithm, but estimation of short term prognosis by this method remains to be explored. Methods: Eighty two patients admitted with APE were divided into three groups a...
