چکیده

Fig. 1. Multi-slice ECG-gated CT scan (slice thickness, 1.25 mm). (A) Contrast enhanced axial image, the right pulmonary artery was completely occluded by a mass (arrowhead). Endovascular component and extension into the surrounding pulmonary parenchyma were well shown. (B) 3D volume-rendered reconstruction (oblique view) shows the extension (arrowheads) and bronchial artery hypertrophy (arrows) more clearly.

Electrocardiogram-Gated 320-Slice Multidetector Computed Tomography for the Measurement of Pulmonary Arterial Distensibility in Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension

BACKGROUND We aimed to study whether pulmonary arterial distensibility (PAD) correlates with hemodynamic parameters in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) using electrocardiogram (ECG)-gated 320-slice multidetector computed tomography (MDCT). METHODS AND FINDINGS ECG-gated 320-slice MDCT and right heart catheterization (RHC) was performed in 53 subjects (60.6±11.4 years old;...

Noninvasive assessment of coronary artery disease by multislice spiral computed tomography using a new retrospectively ECG-gated image reconstruction technique.

The present study was designed to investigate the accuracy of multislice spiral computed tomography (MSCT) in detecting coronary artery disease, compared with coronary angiography (CAG), using a new retrospectively ECG-gated reconstruction method that reduced cardiac motion artifact. The study group comprised 54 consecutive patients undergoing MSCT and CAG. MSCT was performed using a SOMATOM Vo...

Intimal sarcoma of pulmonary artery is a disease easily misdiagnosed as acute or chronic pulmonary thromboembolism. Although the disease is rarely seen, life-saving surgical treatment can be applied if correctly diagnosed. We report a case of 69-year-old woman with clinical presentation of progressive dyspnea received medical treatment because pulmonary embol ism was initially diagnosed. But CT...

Multidetector computed tomography findings of an asymptomatic levoatrial cardinal vein with an interatrial course.

A 57-year-old female patient with a family history of coronary artery disease admitted to our hospital for the coronary check-up. A coronary angiography was performed with ECG-gated 128 slice dual source computed tomography.Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) showed, in addition to the normal coronary arteries, a persistent levoatrial cardinal vein (LCV) draining into vena cava superior. E...
