Series of computed tomography scans demonstrating the movement of the air emboli. Immediate post-procedure computed tomography scans demonstrated free air with flow-related motion artifact in a the right middle lobe mass (white arrow), and the left atrium (open arrow), and b the right pulmonary vein (black arrow). After 50 s, a follow-up computed tomography scan demonstrated air collections in c the ascending aorta (black arrow) and d right coronary artery (white arrow)
