Comparison of automated quantitative coronary angiography with caliper measurements of percent diameter stenosis.
Measurement of coronary artery stenosis is an invaluable tool in the study of coronary artery disease. Clinical trials and even day-to-day decision making should ideally be based on accurate and reproducible quantitative methods. Quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) using digital angiographic techniques has been shown to fulfill these requirements. Yet many laboratories have abandoned visual...
متن کاملAssessment of percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty by quantitative coronary angiography: diameter versus densitometric area measurements.
Cineangiograms of 138 patients who underwent percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) were analyzed with a computer-based coronary angiography analysis system. The results before and after dilatation are presented. In a first study group (120 patients), the severity of the obstructive lesions derived from the automatically detected contours was evaluated in absolute terms and in pe...
متن کاملDiagnosis of coronary stenosis with CT angiography comparison of automated computer diagnosis with expert readings.
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES To compare computer-generated interpretation of coronary computed tomography angiography (cCTA) by commercially available COR Analyzer software with expert human interpretation. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act‑compliant study was approved by the institutional review board. Among 225 consecutive cCTA examinat...
متن کاملMeasurement error of percent diameter carotid stenosis determined by conventional angiography: implications for noninvasive evaluation.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Our aim was to quantitate the range of error in measurement of percent diameter carotid stenosis using conventional angiography in order to estimate the misclassification rate in selecting patients for carotid endarterectomy. METHODS A secondary or meta-analysis of published data regarding carotid stenosis measurement error associated with angiography yielded a narrow r...
متن کاملa comparison of teachers and supervisors, with respect to teacher efficacy and reflection
supervisors play an undeniable role in training teachers, before starting their professional experience by preparing them, at the initial years of their teaching by checking their work within the proper framework, and later on during their teaching by assessing their progress. but surprisingly, exploring their attributes, professional demands, and qualifications has remained a neglected theme i...
