Improved diagnostic accuracy with 16-row multi-slice computed tomography coronary angiography.
OBJECTIVES We sought to compare the diagnostic value of multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT) coronary angiography (CA) to detect significant stenoses (> or =50% lumen diameter reduction) with that of invasive CA. BACKGROUND The latest 16-row MSCT scanner has a faster rotation time (375 ms) and permits scanning with a higher X-ray tube current (500 to 600 mA) during MSCT CA when compared wit...
متن کاملHighly accurate coronary angiography with submillimetre, 16 slice computed tomography.
OBJECTIVE To assess submillimetre coronary computed tomographic angiography (CTA) in comparison with invasive quantitative coronary angiography as the gold standard and to examine the effect of significant coronary artery calcification (CAC), which is known to impede lumen visualisation, on the accuracy of the examination. METHODS After invasive coronary angiography, 58 patients underwent cor...
متن کاملDiagnostic accuracy of coronary angiography using 64-slice computed tomography in coronary artery disease
OBJECTIVES To conduct a meta-analysis and investigate the diagnostic value of 64-slice computed tomography (CT) angiography for diagnosing coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients. METHODS A comprehensive literature search from March 2005 to August 2014 was performed on the following databases: Cochrane Library; Medline; EmBase; PubMed; and BioMed Central database. As a reference standard, s...
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 کاملDiagnostic accuracy of noninvasive coronary angiography using 64-slice spiral computed tomography.
OBJECTIVES The aim of our study was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of multislice computed tomography (MSCT) coronary angiography using a new 64-slice scanner. BACKGROUND The new 64-slice MSCT scanner has improved spatial resolution of 0.4 mm and a faster rotation time (330 ms) compared to prior MSCT scanners. METHODS We studied 70 consecutive patients undergoing elective invasive coron...
