Pulmonary Artery CT angiography (PTE Study, Pulmonary Thromboembolism)

Angio-TC Arterias pulmonaresAngio-TC Arterias pulmonares

Diagnostic test to examine the pulmonary arteries using CT (Computed Tomography) equipment to obtain two- and three-dimensional images. The use of iodinated contrast is essential in this study, as it will allow for better anatomical definition. This test is mainly indicated in cases of suspected pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) to rule out or confirm the presence of blood clots inside the arteries.
