Figure 1. CT pulmonary angiography viewed on mediastinal settings showing characteristic filling defects of long segments of leg vein thrombus coiled in the central pulmonary arteries.
Figure 2. CT pulmonary angiography on lung parenchymal settings showing multiple pleural-based wedge-shaped areas of consolidation in keeping with pulmonary infarcts. This patient had pleuritic chest pain and haemoptysis. Note previous myocardial infarction that has resulted in thinning of the septum of the left ventricle.
Figure 3. This 36-year-old man presented with pleuritic type chest pain. CT pulmonary angiography demonstrated the presence of a significant pericardial effusion, later confirmed as viral pericarditis.
Figure 4. This patient presented with bilateral leg swelling and chest pain. CT pulmonary angiography confirmed a small embolus and CT venography showed inferior vena cava thrombus (arrow).
