The diagnostic value of 256 slice iCT pulmonary angiography in pulmonary embolism
Abstract：Objective To assess the clinical significance of 256-slice CT angiography in the pulmonary embolism during dy-namic contrast-enhanced CT examination .Methods 29 patients with clinically known PE underwent MSCTA , by mutiplanar re-construction (MPR), Curved planar reformation (CPR), 3D volume imaging (VR) and maximum intensity projection (MIP) af-ter treatment ,and contemporary analysis of characteristics of morphology , location image of thrombosis .Results MSCTA clearly showed the sites ,extensions and stenosed lumens of PE in all patients on CTA images .PE lesions apeared as intraluminal irregu-lar-plaque shape and adhered-mural filling defects whose periphery was probably encased by the contrast medium with hyperdensi -ty.Conclusion 256-slice spiral CT angiography is one of the most effective and non-invasive imaging modalities in the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism .
