63-year old male patient was attended to DE CT angiography to investigate swelling of the left lower limb with prominent varicosity.

A 63-year-old male patient, who has been suffering from venous varicosity of the left lower limb for the past 30 years came to the hospital for a checkup. Physical examinations revealed a mild swelling of the left lower limb with prominent varicosity. An ulcerated area, measuring 3 × 5 cm in size, was visible on the lateral side. A Dual Energy (DE) CT angiography (CTA) was performed to investigate the cause of the varicosity.

The outcomes by Siemens Healthineers customers described herein are based on results that were achieved in the customer’s unique setting.
