Computed tomography in pulmonary sarcoidosis.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:This study is motivated by the possibility of using computed tomography (CT) to detect early coronary atherosclerosis by the increased CT values within the arterial wall resulting from vasa vasorum proliferation. METHODS:Coronary arteries (n = 5) with early atherosclerotic changes were injected with Microfil...
