Abstract
In this chapter we will concentrate on the more frequent systemic lung disease with cardiac involvement (pericarditis, myocarditis, valvular abnormalities) and in particular ischemic coronary events occurring very often at a younger age than in the normal population. The contribution of MDCT combining a lung parenchymal study with an examination of the cardiovascular system during the same procedure will be discussed.
