Purpose: This study aims to prove that the test bolus technique provides a better selective imaging study of the pulmonary arterial system in comparison to the automatic bolus-tracking technique. Method: A prospective study included 600 patients, classified into 2 groups where each group consisted of 300 patients. In group A, we used the bolus tracking technique with 80−100 ml of contrast while in group B test bolus technique was used with 50 mL of contrast. Results: It was clear that the Main PA average density was 260.5 HU in group A and increased to 320 HU in group B with P value < 0.002. The Ascending aorta average density decreased from 250 HU in group A to 130 HU in group B with P value |
