Fig. 3B. —Synopsis of images reconstructed from nongated (A, C,
E) and ECG-gated (B, D, F) MDCT data of 58-year-old woman with no
bronchial abnormality. Images of bronchial tree obtained using shaded surface
display based on nongated MDCT data (A) compared to ECG-gated data
(B) reveal that subsegmental branches of right upper lobe (right
square, B) are better visualized without ECG gating. In this particular
case, inferior lingular segmental bronchus (left square, B) is not seen
in nongated image, whereas superior lingular segmental bronchus is seen over
longer distance compared to ECG-gated image. In ECG-gated image both lingular
bronchi are seen.
