Cardiovascular
MDCT applications in the field of cardiovascular imaging are numerous and include: assessment of
the coronary arteries, bronchial arteries, renal arteries and aorta; diagnosis of aortic aneurysms,
chest masses, pulmonary embolism and peripheral artery disease; evaluation of coronary artery
bypass grafts and calcium scores; and visualization of vascular injury.

MDCT.net is pleased to inform its readers that a new subject section dedicated to
musculoskeletal radiology
has been launched on the website.
This new section complements the already existing anatomical sections, specifically: abdomen
and pelvis; brain, head and neck; chest and cardiovascular.
New content in the musculoskeletal section includes recent literature and clinical cases
regarding the use of multidetector CT for imaging pathologies of the bones, joints and muscles.
This information on the musculoskeletal applications of CT will be particularly relevant to
clinicians who deal with trauma, neoplastic and degenerative diseases, anatomic abnormalities, and
orthopaedic implants.
