Radiological features of normal and abnormal pulmonary blood flow.
نویسنده
چکیده
A short review is given of the anatomy of the pulmonary arterial system and of the bronchial arterial system. The normal vascular pattern of the lung as well as the altered vascular pattern under a number of abnormal circumstances is described.

Radiological features of enlarged bronchial arteries.
Changes in the radiological appearances of the hilar region of the lungs may indicate that the pulmonary blood supply is not normal. In atresia of the pulmonary valve, the pulmonary arteries may be absent, but more often they are small and may be supplied or supplemented by anomalous vessels. Then blood reaches the lungs mainly by the bronchial arteries or by other collaterals and there is litt...
متن کاملChest radiological features among patients with smear positive pulmonary tuberculosis
Background: Chest x-ray has an important role in the diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB). The aim of this study was to determine the radiological changes in patients with smear positive pulmonary tuberculosis.Methods: In this study, 325 patients with smear positive pulmonary TB was enrolled. The affected lobe or lobes of the left or right lung were recorded. The types of involvement were categorized...
متن کاملMathematical Modelling of Pulmonary Edema
The excess accumulation of water in lung interstitial or alveolar is called pulmonary edema which is caused by factors that upset the normal Starling balance in micro-circulation. Pulmonary edema disturbs the alveolar gas exchanges which are normally regulated by the respiratory system. Mathematical modelling of pulmonary edema may help to predict the lung conditions and the mechanisms involved...

متن کاملEVALUATION OF PULMONARY IRON OVER LOAD IN PATIENTS WITH Β-THALASSEMIA MAJOR USING SPIROMETRY
Background & Aims: Spirometry changes in thalassemic patients can be obstructive or restrictive and pulmonary dysfunction depends on age and body iron overload. In this study the effectiveness of lung spirometry in detecting iron overload in patients with β-thalassemia was investigated. Materials & Methods: This cross-sectional (descriptive-analytic) study investigated the spirometry test resu...
