Pulmonary venous phase 17-24 sec [6]-Early systemic arterial phase 15-20 sec: immediately Arteries, without enhancement of organs and other soft tissues. Late systemicarterial phase Sometimes also called "arterial phase" or "early venous portal phase" 35-40 sec: 15-20 sec All structures that get their blood supply from the arteries have optimal ...
Early arterial phase imaging is predominantly utilized for angiography and will be discussed separately. Late arterial phase imaging is almost always performed in conjunction with other phases (e.g. portal venous phase) to allow more complete characterization of any identified abnormalities (figure 4).
Computed tomography angiography (also called CT angiography or CTA) is a computed tomography technique used for angiography—the visualization of arteries and veins—throughout the human body. Using contrast injected into the blood vessels, images are created to look for blockages, aneurysms (dilations of walls), dissections (tearing of walls ...
Transient hepatic attenuation differences (THAD) are areas of enhancement during the arterial phase of contrast CT of the liver. THAD is thought to be a physiological phenomenon resulting from regional variation in the blood supply by the portal vein and/or the hepatic artery .
It is useful in the diagnosis and treatment of arterial and venous occlusions, including carotid artery stenosis, pulmonary embolisms, and acute limb ischaemia; arterial stenosis, which is particularly useful for potential kidney donors in detecting renal artery stenosis (DSA is the gold standard investigation for renal artery stenosis [10 ...
Post mortem CT angiography for medicolegal cases is a method initially developed by a virtopsy group. Originating from that project, both watery [16] and oily [17] solutions have been evaluated. While oily solutions [17] require special deposition equipment to collect waste water, watery [16] solutions seem to be regarded as less problematic ...
The human hepatic portal system delivers about three-fourths of the blood going to the liver.The final common pathway for transport of venous blood from spleen, pancreas, gallbladder and the abdominal portion of the gastrointestinal tract [2] (with the exception of the inferior part of the anal canal and sigmoid colon) is through the hepatic portal vein.
10 sec – choroidal flush (or "pre-arterial phase") 10–12 sec – retinal arterial stage; 13 sec – capillary transition stage; 14–15 sec – early venous stage (or "laminar stage", "arterial-venous stage") 16–17 sec – venous stage; 18–20 sec – late venous stage; 5 minutes – late staining
