Multidetector-row computed tomography (MDCT) is a breakthrough in computed tomography technology, providing a substantial gain in performance in comparison to previous technologies. The main advantage of MDCT over previous CT generations is the ability to acquire thin-section data from a scan volume within a short scan time. Given the shorter scanning time and the higher image quality, MDCT- angiography is now at the forefront of clinical vascular imaging in small animals. Datasets obtained from MDCT scanners can be displayed as volume using computer workstations creating excellent three- dimensional maps of the vasculature. This book provides an overview on MDCT technical basis, angiographic protocols, and post-processing techniques useful for vascular studies. A large pictorial section provides comprehensive 3D vascular maps of the canine abdominal vasculature, showing the in vivo normal anatomy, variants, and most common congenital vascular anomalies, such as ...
