MDCT and virtual angioscopy in spontaneous aortocaval fistula
2007
Aortocaval fistula is a rare, less than 1%, but life threatening complication, of abdominal aortic aneurysm. Mortality is high but prompt recognition of the fistula can reduce mortality rate. The multidetector row CT (MDCT) findings in a 69-year-old patient with a complex medical history characterized by previous episodes of myocardial ischemia, is reported. MDCT shows an early homogeneous enhancement of the inferior vena cava, slightly dilated at the liver level and markedly narrowed above the renal vein due to aneurysm compression. The patient underwent to emergency laparotomy but died during surgery for cardiac arrest. MDCT allows a prompt recognition of the fistula and different compute…

Italian multicenter, prospective study to evaluate the negative predictive value of 16- and 64-slice MDCT imaging in patients scheduled for coronary …

This was a prospective, multicenter study designed to evaluate the utility of MDCT in the diagnosis of coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients scheduled for elective coronary angiography (CA) using different MDCT systems from different manufacturers. Twenty national sites prospectively enrolled 367 patients between July 2004 and June 2006. Computed tomography (CT) was performed using a standardized/optimized scan protocol for each type of MDCT system (> or =16 slices) and compared with quantitative CA performed within 2 weeks of MDCT. A total of 284 patients (81%) were studied by 16-slice MDCT systems, while 66 patients (19%) by 64-slice MDCT scanners. The primary analysis was on-site/off…
Anatomical variants and anomalies of the coronary tree studied with MDCT coronary angiography
2010
Le anomalie delle arterie coronariche sono presenti alla nascita nella maggior parte dei casi asintomatiche ma possono manifestarsi con sintomatologia severa quale angina pectoris o addirittura l’arresto cardiaco. L’angiografia coronarica mediante tomografia computerizzata multistrato (TCMS) permette, tramite ricostruzioni multiplanari secondo piani curvilinei e riformattazioni 3D, la visualizzazione dell’albero coronarico e delle sue varianti ed anomalie in maniera non invasiva, fornendo migliore e più accurata alternativa alla angiografia coronarica (AC). Lo scopo di questo pictorial consiste nella descrizione mediante immagini TCMS con ricostruzioni multiplanari e 3D delle principali var…
