1038-152 Determination of left and right cardiac function with multislice computed tomography

Cardiac applications of multislice computed tomography.

Netherlands Multislice CT (MSCT) is gaining clinical acceptance for cardiac imaging owing to improved temporal and spatial resolution of the latest 16-slice and 64-slice technology. Although the cardiac MSCT applications are promising, there is still room for further technical improvements and optimization of post-processing techniques for cardiac evaluation. Interestingly, the data acquired fo...

Multislice Spiral Computed Tomography in Cardiac Imaging

Objective: Multislice computed tomography is an emerging technology with the potential for non-invasive coronary investigation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and limitations of multislice computed tomography in the detection of coronary artery disease. Patients and Methods: Multislice computed tomography was performed in symptomatic patients with atypical chest pain and ...

Diagnosis of aortic valvular stenosis by multislice cardiac computed tomography.

AIMS Current improvements in spatial, temporal, and contrast resolution of multislice computed tomography (CT) could be useful in the assessment of valvular diseases. We evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of multislice CT for the identification and quantification of aortic valvular stenosis (AS), compared with echography. METHODS AND RESULTS Consecutive patients, referred for coronary CT, were...
