Imaging 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 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 کاملPancreatic adenocarcinoma: diagnosis and staging using multidetector-row computed tomography (MDCT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
Pancreatic adenocarcinoma continues to be a leading cause of cancer death in the Western world and is amongst the leading gastrointestinal cancers. The incidence of pancreatic cancer has been stable or slowly rising in the past few decades. Overall the prognosis is poor with 5-year survival rates still under 5%. Therefore early detection and accurate staging of these tumors is crucial for optim...
متن کاملAdvanced Gastric Cancer and Perfusion Imaging Using a Multidetector Row Computed Tomography: Correlation with Prognostic Determinants
OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship between the perfusion CT features and the clinicopathologically determined prognostic factors in advanced gastric cancer cases. MATERIALS AND METHODS A perfusion CT was performed on 31 patients with gastric cancer one week before surgery using a 16-channel multi-detector CT (MDCT) instrument. The data were analyzed with commercially available software...
متن کاملMultidetector-row computed tomography management of acute pulmonary embolism.
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate the usefulness and safety of multidetector-row computed tomography (MDCT) pulmonary angiography and indirect venography management of acute pulmonary embolism (PE), including indication for inferior vena cava (IVC) filter. METHODS AND RESULTS Seventy-one consecutive patients who were clinically suspected of PE and underwent 16-slice MDCT pu...
