The Significance of Incidental Findings on Computed Tomography of the Chest
The Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2018Computed tomography (CT) of the chest has replaced lung scans and pulmonary angiography as the criterion standard for the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism (PE). Most of these examinations are negative for PE, but they frequently have incidental findings that may require further evaluation.In order to examine common incidental findings and their possible

Computed Tomography of the Pediatric Chest
2016Advances in multidetector computed tomography (CT) technology have revolutionized thoracic imaging in children. Faster scanning times, increased anatomic coverage, and high quality reconstructions have enabled CT to become a valuable tool in the evaluation of thoracic diseases.

Arterial Structures of the Chest and Abdomen at Computer Tomography
Acta Radiologica. Diagnosis, 1979Cross-sections illustrating normal and abnormal arterial structures were selected from a total of 1810 CT examinations of the chest and the abdomen. The radiologic importance of these structures is pointed out.

Role of Computed Tomography in Pediatric Chest Conditions
The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2016CT is the preferred cross-sectional imaging modality for detailed evaluation of anatomy and pathology of the lung and tracheobronchial tree, and plays a complimentary role in the evaluation of certain chest wall, mediastinal, and cardiac abnormalities.

[Computer-assisted tomography of the chest].
Schweizerische medizinische Wochenschrift, 1979Computer-assisted tomography of the chest is the most accurate technique in diagnostic imaging of tumoral disease of the mediastinum. It is also a reliable method of detecting lymphadenopathies and lung metastases, as well as any pathological process involving the pleura and the thoracic wall.

Computed Tomography of the Chest in the Intensive Care Unit
Critical Care Clinics, 1994Two recent reports evaluated thoracic CT in critically ill patients. One looked at 87 patients with concurrent mobile chest radiographs and CT scans. CT provided unsuspected significant diagnostic information in 61 of the 87 patients. Examples included malpositioned or occluded chest tube, unsuspected large pleural effusion, empyema, pneumothorax, lung

High-Resolution Computed Tomography of the Chest
Journal of Thoracic Imaging, 1993High-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) may show parenchymal abnormalities in patients with normal or questionable findings on the chest radiograph; and because it provides an accurate assessment of the pattern and distribution of lung disease, it also improves the accuracy of the differential diagnosis.

Computed tomography for the diagnosis of infectious diseases of the chest
Expert Opinion on Medical Diagnostics, 2008Pulmonary infection is a common reason for imaging of the lung in immunocompetent and immunosuppressed patients. Findings on chest radiography are nonspecific and encompass poor sensitivity. The role of computed tomography (CT) has been evolving in the diagnosis of lung infections.This paper reviews recent developments in the efficacy and utility of CT
