Imaging of intracoronary thrombus by multidetector helical computed tomography angiography.
An 83-year-old woman presented to the emergency department with a 2-hour history of sudden chest pain and dyspnea. An initial ECG demonstrated nonspecific ST changes, and a portable chest x-ray suggested a widened mediastinum. A thoracic multidetector helical computed tomography (CT) angiogram was obtained to assess the possibility of aortic dissection (GE LightSpeed Plus, 2.5-mm collimation wi...
متن کاملMultidetector-Row Computed Tomography Coronary Angiography
onsiderable progress has recently been achieved in the field of noninvasive imaging of the coronary arteries by computed tomography (CT). Multidetector-row CT (MDCT) scanners are equipped with thinner detectors and have a shorter rotation time, which enables considerably faster volume coverage with a thinner slice width during a single breath hold. The entire heart volume can be covered with ne...
متن کاملMultiple renal arteries: variations demonstrated by multidetector computed tomography angiography.
OBJECTIVE To present a case of a rare variation of the renal artery and multiple (7) renal arteries by multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) angiography. CLINICAL PRESENTATION AND INTERVENTION A 36-year-old male patient was admitted to our hospital as a potential living donor for renal transplantation. An MDCT angiography was performed using a 16-detector row CT scanner to obtain a detaile...
متن کاملPrognostic Value of Multidetector Computed Tomography Coronary Angiography in Diabetes
OBJECTIVE To assess the prognostic role of multidetector computed tomography coronary angiography (MDCT-CA) in patients with diabetes with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD). Use of MDCT-CA is increasing in patients with suspected CAD. However, data supporting its prognostic value in patients with diabetes are limited. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Between January 2006 and September 2007, ...
متن کاملPrognostic value of multidetector coronary computed tomography angiography.
results of this study suggested superiority of CABG over PCI in elderly patients, this is counterintuitive and these results may not be generalizable to the majority of patients requiring coronary revascularization. Those patients with a higher risk profile were likely to be excluded from randomization because of procedural risks associated with CABG (3). The advantage of PCI in the elderly pat...
