CT Angiography of the Upper Extremity Arterial System: Part 1-Anatomy, Technique, and Use in Trauma Patients.

摘要

OBJECTIVE. In this article, we focus on the arterial anatomy of the upper extremities, the technical aspects of upper extremity CT angiography (CTA), and CTA use in trauma patients. CONCLUSION. CTA using modern MDCT scanners has evolved into a highly accurate noninvasive diagnostic tool for the evaluation of patients with abnormalities of the upper extremity arterial system.
