Effects of airway pressure on contrast enhancement and diameter of the pulmonary artery in healthy dogs as determined by use of computed tomography angiography.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Airway pressure affected time to peak enhancement, KCdVC, contrast enhancement, and pulmonary artery diameter. Results suggested that 10 cm H2O could be an optimal pressure for evaluation of the pulmonary artery of dogs by use of CT angiography. (Am J Vet Res 2019;80;756-763).
