Abstract
Helical computed tomographic angiography with differential color imaging technique clearly demonstrated pulmonary venous obstruction in an infant with total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage before and after operation. This technique is less invasive and provides precise spatial information of complicated vascular anomalies.
