Cystic lesions in multislice computed tomography of the chest: A diagnostic approach
Purpose: To evaluate the role of Multislice Computed Tomography (MSCT) in the detection, diagnosis and differentiation of possible causes of chest cystic lesions using different capabilities of MSCT. Patients and methods: The study involved 43 patients. Clinical examination, history taking, relevant laboratory data, pulmonary function test if needed, together with different techniques of MSCT a...
متن کاملDose Reduction Methods in Chest Computed Tomography
Introduction: Computed tomography is one of the most powerful tools for investigating thorax disease, because it shows progression of lung disease much clearer than chest radiography. Technical advances in CT scanners have led to some abilities for CT scanners such as coverage of larger volume, lower noise and ability for acquiring image in one respiratory phase. However, this will be accompani...
متن کاملMultislice computed tomography for comprehensive assessment of the heart in acute chest pain: a case report
INTRODUCTION Over the last decade cardiac computed tomography emerged as a non-invasive imaging modality for the assessment of the heart and the coronary arteries. Only recently its use for patient management in the emergency department was suggested. CASE PRESENTATION We present an 84-year old male patient with concomitant early in-stent restenosis after coronary artery stent placement, myoc...
متن کاملComputed Tomography in the Diagnosis of Lesions in and Around the Saddle Area
Computed tomography is the method of choice for initial evaluation of pa tints with potential suprasellar masses. In our experience during the last 2 years C.T. has proved reliable for detecting or rulling out the presence of a suprasellar mass. It shows the direction and degree of parasellar extension and the presence of any calcific or cystic component of the lesion. When C.T. was negat...
