Hemoptysis is defined by the expectoration of blood from infra-glottal airway. Massive hemoptysis can be a life-threatening intrathoracic disease that requires urgent investigations and management. The chest radiography and the computed tomography (CT) are useful to localize the bleeding site and to identify the cause of hemoptysis. Bronchial artery embolization is the most effective nonsurgical treatment in the management of massive and recurrent hemoptysis. This article reviews the role of radiology in the diagnosis and treatment of hemoptysis.
