متن کاملComputed tomography coronary angiography.
Recent developments in computed tomography technology have made imaging of the coronary arteries possible. All the same, the rapid motion and small dimensions of the coronary vessels make coronary computed tomography angiography (coronary CTA) challenging. With the last generations of 16- and 64-slice computed tomography and adequate patient preparation (which includes lowering of the heart rat...
متن کاملCoronary Computed Tomography Angiography
Coronary computed tomographic angiography (cCTA) as a noninvasive approach underlies a rapid technological development with an impressive improvement of spatial and temporal resolution of the images. Therefore, it has become an accurate and costeffective method to detect or exclude obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with low to medium cardiovascular risk profile, as recommend...
متن کاملCan coronary computed tomography angiography replace invasive angiography? Coronary computed tomography angiography cannot replace invasive angiography.
O ne million patients undergo invasive coronary angiogra-phy (CA) in the United States every year. 1 In view of its invasive nature and related costs, noninvasive imaging of coronary imaging has the theoretical appeal to improve comfort for patients, reduce cost, and refine patient selection to limit invasive procedures to patients requiring treatment for ischemic coronary artery disease (CAD)....
متن کاملImage Quality of 256-Slice Computed Tomography for Coronary Angiography.
PURPOSE To assess the image quality of 256-slice computed tomographic angiography (CTA) and to identify possible impact factors associated with image quality. METHODS From November 2009 to January 2010, 506 patients underwent 256-slice CTA at our institute. A total of 451 patients were enrolled in our study, after 55 patients were excluded because of prior bypass surgery and stenting. CTA ima...
