| Summary: | Traumatic injuries of major airways (trachea and main bronchus) are rare in medical practice but represent extremely life-threatening conditions. The study aims to present a summary of research findings on the diagnostic capabilities of Virtual bronchoscopy (VB) in ruptures of trachea and bronchi. There is very little research into the applicability of VB in Bulgaria. Still, the modern equipment for MDCT VB during the last years provides to use the VB in diagnostic practice and for scientific examinations. The method of VB is recognized as a reliable tool in diagnostic practice and the research of tracheal and bronchial ruptures. |
