Coronary CT Angiography for Coronary Artery Disease: The Current Status and Future Challenges
نویسندگان
چکیده
Coronary computed tomographic angiography, often known as CCTA, is quickly becoming the diagnostic technique of choice for determining existence coronary artery disease (CAD). In future, CCTA may play an essential part a "one-stop shop" in screening, diagnosis, decision making, and treatment planning processes. Plaque burden, high-risk plaque, non-invasive perfusion with hyperemia, fractional flow reserve (FFR), percent myocardium at risk, inflammation, myocardial scar, wall motion analysis, risk scores are some many measures that utilized.

Noninvasive CT coronary angiography is a promising coronary imaging technique. In spite of the unprecedented temporal and spatial resolution and the inability to perform therapeutic interventions in the same session multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) has been considering a promising alternative, non invasive tool for coronary artery imaging due to its high sensitivity and specificity for...
متن کاملMultislice CT Coronary Angiography in Evaluation of Coronary Artery Disease
The investigation and treatment of coronary disease impose a significant burden on health service resources. Catheter coronary angiography remains the gold standard for the investigation of suspected coronary disease. Given the invasive nature and high costs of invasive coronary angiography, there is an increased interest in noninvasive methods to image the lumen of the coronary arteries. Recen...
