Coronary artery disease in patients with cardiac tumors: preoperative assessment by computed tomography coronary angiography.
We studied the diagnostic accuracy of computed tomography coronary angiography (CTCA) for the diagnosis of significant coronary artery disease (CAD) compared to conventional coronary angiography (CCA) in patients with primary cardiac tumors. Thirty-eight consecutive patients with primary cardiac tumors (27 females, 11 males; mean age 56+/-6 years, range 32-86 years) underwent dual-source CTCA a...
متن کاملEvaluation of iron status in patients with coronary artery disease
Background: Iron can causes lipid peroxidation in vivo and in vitro. Iron promotes myocardial injury in experimental animals. Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation by oxidants including iron have a central role in atherosclerotic process. By this means, evaluation of serum iron in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) has a significant importance. Materials and Methods: In this cross s...
متن کاملPhysiologic Assessment of Coronary Artery Disease by Cardiac Computed Tomography
Coronary artery disease (CAD) remains the leading cause of death and morbidity worldwide. To date, diagnostic evaluation of patients with suspected CAD has relied upon the use of physiologic non-invasive testing by stress electrocardiography, echocardiography, myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) and magnetic resonance imaging. Indeed, the importance of physiologic evaluation of CAD has been high...
متن کاملDiagnostic accuracy of multidetector computed tomography coronary angiography in patients with angiographically proven coronary artery disease.
OBJECTIVES The aim of the present study was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy in detecting high-grade coronary stenoses in patients with known coronary artery disease (CAD) using multidetector computed tomography (MDCT). BACKGROUND The MDCT systems with electrocardiographic (ECG)-gating permit visualization of the coronary arteries. However, severe calcifications and higher heart rates are ...
