Patient Preparation
Bony and cartilaginous structures such as the central
airway and bronchial tree, the osteomeatal system of
the Paranasal Sinuses are inherently filled with air and
therefore ideal for performing Virtual CT Endoscopy.
No special preparations are required.
For CT endoscopic evaluation of the vessel (virtual CT
angioscopy), a good CTA data set with good vessel
enhancement is required.
In the case of CT colonography, adequate preparation
in bowel cleaning must be done prior to the CT exam.
The bowel can be delineated with air, carbon dioxide,
water or iodine/barium suspension.
