title: [Computerized tomography of bronchial arteries before and after embolization].
abstract: The whole mediastinal course of dilated bronchial arteries can be reliably visualised by spiral CT, as shown by angiography and embolisation. Based on volume acquisition in a breathhold discontinuity artifacts are avoided, thin overlapping sections are reconstructed, and a three-dimensional display of the bronchial arteries is performed. The therapeutic success of bronchial artery embolisation in a patient suffering from a tuberculous destroyed lung and hemoptysis was documented by spiral CT.
