Computed 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 کاملAccuracy of low-dose computed tomography coronary angiography using prospective electrocardiogram-triggering: first clinical experience.
AIMS To evaluate the accuracy of low-dose computed tomography coronary angiography (CTCA) using prospective ECG-triggering for the assessment of coronary artery disease (CAD). METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 30 patients (19 males, 11 females, mean age 58.8 +/- 9.9 years) underwent low-dose CTCA and invasive coronary angiography (CA) [median 2 days (0, 41)]. Before CT scanning, intravenous beta...
