Presentation Transcript

  1. Vasculature Physiologic Disturbances

  2. Blood Flow StudiesHeart And Vessels • X-ray plain film for pulmonary vessels only • Nuclear Medicine – V/Q Scan • Angiography • CT angiography • Magnetic resonance angiography • Ultrasound (doppler)

  3. Pulmonary Vascularity • Pulmonary arteries • Pulmonary veins • Bronchial arteries and veins • Interstitium • Lymphatics

  4. Abnormal Pulmonic CirculationIncreased Pulmonary Circulation • Conditions causing increased pulmonary flow • Pulmonary hypertension. • Left-to-right shunt (VSD, ASD, PDA).

  5. Abnormal Pulmonic CirculationIncreased Pulmonary Circulation • Pulmonary venous stasis and venous hypertension • Left heart dysfunction • Left heart failure, etc

  6. Abnormal Pulmonic Circulation Decreased Pulmonary Circulation • Right ventricle outlet stenosis or obstruction • Pulmonary stenosis • Tetralogy of Fallot (VSD, Pulmonary stenosis, Overiding Aorta, RV hypertrophy) • Tricuspid valvular atresia, etc • Pulmonary artery stenosis or obstruction • Pulmonary infarct • Pulmonary embolism, etc

  7. Pulmonary Emboli • PA chest • Essentially normal chest findings

  8. Pulmonary Emboli • Lung scan • Ventilation scan with Xenon or particulate • Perfusion with multiple small emboli

  9. Pulmonary Emboli • Multiple defects in the perfusion examination • Overall decreased perfusion in the right lung

  10. Pulmonary Emboli • CT with contrast • Large low density filling defect in the right pulmonary artery • Exam of choice today

  11. Pulmonary Emboli • Pulmonary angiogram • Catheter in left pulmonary artery from right femoral vein • Filling defect (thrombus) in the inferior interlobar branch of the left pulmonary artery

  12. MRI Angiography • Non contrast technique possible • Visualize all of the vascular structures

  13. Doppler Ultrasound • Doppler principles similar to that of the moving locomotive • Determine direction of flow and speed by the doppler (frequency) change of moving blood • Color assignment determined by direction of flow with respect to the transducer

  14. Popliteal Vein Thrombus • Color doppler US • Axial image through popliteal • Flow in artery (red) • No flow in vein • Echogenic thrombus in vein (arrowhead)
