gros troncs

Context:

The answer of Charles Ferguson  See profile was rated best

The pulmonary artery and its main branches.

My comment:

Is the scan is being performed to exclude a pulmonary embolus and there's no thrombus in the big vessels going to the lungs? Unless the context suggests it's an arterial thrombosis they suspect, perhaps a saddle thrombus occluding the iliac arteries.
