Fig. 7From: Clinical applications of cardiac CT angiographyTriple rule-out study with opacification of the aorta, coronary arteries and pulmonary arteries. a Oblique sagittal MIP demonstrates the thoracic aorta (Ao) as well as the bifurcation of the pulmonary arteries (PA). This scan was acquired in four steps using prospective ECG-gating to reduce patient dose. A linear artifact is apparent between each step. b Left anterior oblique coronal MIP demonstrates the origins of the right coronary artery (arrowhead) and left coronary artery (arrow). The aortic valve is identified between the left ventricle and the ascending aorta. c Slightly steeper left anterior oblique projection demonstrates the classic “C” shape of the right coronary arteryBack to article page
