Both the posterior-oblique VRT (a) and the coronal MaxIP (b) images demonstrate an intra-lobar sequestration in the left lower lobe of a 3-month-old child. There is a large (systemic) arterial feeding vessel originating from the abdominal aorta. Venous drainage of the sequestrated lobe is conventional into the pulmonary vein. Abnormal tissue can be seen within the left lower lobe on the MinIP image (c). Scanning parameters: 80 kV, 47 eff mAs, 60 ref mAs, 0.70 CTDIvol, 13 DLP
