Zusammenfassung

In diesem Beitrag werden zunächst die für die computertomographische (CT) Erfassung von Erkrankungen der großen und kleinen Atemwege optimalen Untersuchungstechniken dargestellt. Anschließend folgt eine Beschreibung der CT-Charakteristika der häufigsten Erkrankungen der großen Atemwege (Haupt- und Segmentbronchien). Zuletzt werden die CT-Veränderungen sowie einzelne histopathologische Subtypen der Erkrankungen kleiner Atemwege zusammenfassend dargestellt.

Abstract

This article first presents the optimal imaging techniques for diagnosing diseases of the large and small airways using computed tomography (CT). This is followed by a description of the computed tomographic features of the most common diseases of the large airways (main and segmental bronchi). Finally, the CT changes and histopathologic subtypes of small airways diseases are summarized.
