2008 journal article

Computed tomographic assessment of vascular invasion and resectability of mediastinal masses in dogs and a cat

NEW ZEALAND VETERINARY JOURNAL, 56(6), 330–333.

By: W. Scherrer*, A. Kyles, V. Samii*, E. Hardie n, P. Kass* & C. Gregory*

author keywords: Computed tomography; mediastinal mass; thymoma; vascular invasion
TL;DR: Non-angiographic contrast-enhanced CT was signifi cantly less sensitive for detecting vascular invasion of cranial mediastinal masses when compared with surgical evaluation, and a more sensitive method than CT should be investigated. (via Semantic Scholar)
