Abstract：Objective To investigate the method and effect of bronchial artery CT angiography ( CTA) in the treatment of massive hemoptysis by interventional embolization .Methods 84 patients with massive hemoptysis underwent interventional em-bolization and treatment before bronchial artery CTA examination were selected , treated once again clear in patients with arterial hemorrhage and underwent interventional embolization .After 1 week treatment , the bronchial artery CTA was reviewed .We retro-spectively analysed the application value of bronchial artery CTA in the treatment of patients with the disease .Results Massive hemoptysis patients before treatment , all of bronchial artery CT angiography ( CTA) , were found in 112 branches of the bleeding vessel, interventional embolization were found in the bleeding vessel 123 branch, in the diagnosis of bronchial artery CT angiogra-phy (CTA), the rate was 91.06%.Patients with bronchial artery CTA were performed after interventional embolization and treat -ment were successful , after interventional embolization in the treatment of a total of 76 cases of patients with back to school for bronchial artery CTA examination , examination results showed that vascular lesions in patients with embolization after all obtained good effect of embolization .Conclusion Preoperative bronchial artery CTA examination can provide an effective diagnostic basis for interventional embolization in the treatment of massive hemoptysis .
