Description

Bronchial arteriography combined with computed tomography (BAG-CT) was performed in 30 cases of primary lung cancer to determine the extent of lesions including metastases into lymph nodes. Tumor extent, which was uncertainable by means of plain CT or CT with contrast, could be determined by BAG-CT. Thus, the present observation strongly suggested that BAG-CT is a better method to determine the extent of lung cancer than CT with contrast. (author)
