Transcatheter electrocoagulation of the pulmonary artery was used to successfully create experimental pulmonary infarcts in 15 to 16 dogs. The animals were evaluated from one to 13 weeks by chest radiography, computed tomography (CT), angiography, and pathologic examination. The abnormal densities in the dogs' lungs cleared in two to three weeks. The majority of the chest radiographs were normal in two weeks, and all were normal after three weeks. Prior to sacrifice, CT showed abnormal densities in the lungs in only two of eight animals. CT proved to be more sensitive than chest radiography for showing the densities in the lungs due to pulmonary infarction.
经导管肺动脉电凝术被用于成功地在15至16只犬身上制造实验性肺梗死。通过胸部X线摄影、计算机断层扫描(CT)、血管造影和病理检查,对这些动物进行了1至13周的评估。犬肺部的异常密度在两到三周内消退。大多数胸部X线片在两周时恢复正常,三周后全部恢复正常。在处死前,CT显示八只动物中只有两只肺部有异常密度。事实证明,CT在显示肺梗死所致肺部密度方面比胸部X线摄影更敏感。
