UPDATE:  I have it on reasonably good authority that our NUC MED department will be moved into a new area within the main department of radiology and that a GE Hawkeye SPECT/CT scanner will be installed in the new area.  To my knowledge this will be the first dedicated SPECT/CT in the region. This allows easy image registraton between SPECT and CT images and has applications in Oncology, Orthopedic, Neuro and Infectious Disease imaging.

Thoracic Aortic Pseudoaneurysms

Axial, Sagital and VR images. Post contrast CT Aorta. 

This patient had recent cardiac valve replacement at another hospital and presented to the ED with increasing chest pain.  There are 2 small pseudoaneurysms in the anterior ascending aorta possibly at the sites of prior canulation for cardiac bypass (red arrows).  There is hematoma in the anterior mediastinum (white arrow).
