Multidetector-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 کاملMyocardial bridging and coronary artery anomalies detected by ECG-gated 64-row multidetector computed tomography angiography in symptomatic patients.
Advances in 64-row multidetector computed tomography have provided noninvasive imaging of coronary arteries. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of coronary artery anomalies in Iranian symptomatic patients and to determine the presence of anomalies resulting in myocardial ischaemia without atherosclerotic plaque. This study was carried out in Tabriz University of medical scienc...
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 کاملMyocardial bridging: depiction rate and morphology at CT coronary angiography--comparison with conventional coronary angiography.
PURPOSE To prospectively assess the depiction rate and morphologic features of myocardial bridging (MB) of coronary arteries with 64-section computed tomographic (CT) coronary angiography in comparison to conventional coronary angiography. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients were simultaneously enrolled in a prospective study comparing CT and conventional coronary angiography, for which ethics com...
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...
