Figure 2

A case of hemoptysis. (a) Hemorrhage-responsible arteriogram created by CT during thoracic aortography depicts the arteries responsible for hemoptysis: the right bronchial artery branching from the thoracic aorta (blue); the right bronchial artery branching from the aortic arch (green); the right inferior phrenic artery branching from the celiac axis (yellow); and the right intrathoracic artery branching from the right subclavian artery (red). Based on this image, embolization with gelatin sponge particles was conducted of each of these arteries: the right bronchial artery branching from the thoracic aorta (b, c); another bronchial artery branching from the aortic arch (d, e); the right intra-thoracic artery branching from the right subclavian artery (f, g); and the right inferior phrenic artery branching from the celiac axis artery (h, i).
