Radiologic analysis of the mediastinum utilizing computed tomography. 1977

E R Heitzman, and R L Goldwin, and A V Proto

An attempt has been made to demonstrate the capacity of computed tomography to display mediastinal anatomy. A further attempt has been made to develop a list of indications for the performance of this study in patients with known or suspected mediastinal disease. It should be recognized that the statements made are based on a relatively small patient sample. Undoubtedly, future experience will add to and delete from the indications presented here.
