Angiopneumography
Definition
A radiological imaging investigation method consisting of the visualization and structural recording of the pulmonary vascular system (pulmonary arteries and veins), through the injection of a radiopaque contrast medium. This complex clinical procedure is essential binedefinit in pulmonology and thoracic surgery for the precise diagnosis of pulmonary thromboembolism, evaluation of local vascular malformations, or preoperative mapping of circulation in lung tumors.
