- To evaluate the clinical significance of electron beam computerized tomography (EBCT) in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE). EBCT was performed before March 2004 in 114 consecutive patients with clinically suspected pulmonary vascular diseases, including 76 patients with PTE, 29 with pulmonary arteritis, 5 with primary pulmonary arterial tumor, and 4 with pulmonary arterial invasion by lung or mediastinal carcinoma. EBCT was performed using Imatron C-150 scanner with enhanced continuum volume scan (CVS). The slice thickness was 3 mm with scanning time of 0.1 s. The total amount of contrast media (Omnipaque-300) used was 50-100 ml, with flow rates of 3.0-4.0 ml/s and a delay time of 14-25 s. Deep venous thrombosis (DVT) was confirmed in 58 (76.3%) of the 76 patients with PTE (52 men and 24 women), 8 (10.6%) of them without apparent causes. Of the 2 356 pulmonary arterial branches observed in the 76 cases, 1,668 branches (70.8%) showed signs of PTE, with 545 branches (32
