Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) imaging is an essential tool for performing an accurate segmentectomy. However, data acquired from contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) are considered necessary when reconstructing 3D pulmonary vascular images. Therefore, 3D images are currently unavailable for patients who cannot undergo contrast-enhanced CT scans due to patient-related issues such as anaphylaxis to the contrast agent, among others. We present here our experience with atypical segmentectomies guided by 3D images reconstructed from nonenhanced CT data.
