Utility of four-dimensional computed tomography angiography for evaluating the mobility of a thrombus in the ascending aorta

Radiology Case Reports, 2020
Four-dimensional computed tomography has been used to evaluate moving structures and is a useful method to diagnose cardiovascular diseases. We report a case of cerebral infarction due to the thrombus in the ascending aorta, and utilized 4-dimensional ...

Role of noncontrast magnetic resonance pulmonary imaging in diagnosis of pulmonary embolism

Egyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2022
Background Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a serious condition and has a clinical dilemma in diagnosis. Computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) is a gold standard in its diagnosis, but MRI has proven a good role in PE diagnosis.
