متن کامل[Non-invasive coronary angiography with 16 multidetector-row spiral computed tomography: a comparative study with invasive coronary angiography].
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Non-invasive coronary artery angiography by 16 multidetector-row spiral computed tomography is a novel diagnostic tool whose reliability is still unclear. The aim of our study was to compare this technique with invasive coronary angiography. PATIENTS AND METHOD A total of 31 selected patients were examined with both angiographic methods. Non-invasive studies were p...
