Abstract:
The influence of MSCT on nodule detection and characterization will be discussed. The objective is to improve understanding of the clinical issues involved in nodule detection, characterization, and management in light of technological advances. Topics to be covered are noninvasive characterization techniques, such as morphologic and density inspection on CT, nodule enhancement techniques, CT-PET, temporal nodule size assessment, and computer aided diagnosis for both detection and characterization.

Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...
