Non-invasive coronary artery imaging

Non-Invasive Imaging in Approaching Ischemic Coronary Artery Disease

Non-invasive imaging of a giant right coronary artery due to a coronary fistula.

Coronary artery fistula is a relatively rare finding in patients undergoing diagnostic cardiac catheterization. Incidence, angiographic characteristics and natural history of coronary fistulas of this type have not been well defined in the literature. We report a case of a 54-year-old man in whom such abnormalities have been diagnosed with invasive and non-invasive coronary imaging and review t...

The advent of the tech...

Non-invasive coronary imaging: computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging?

Non-invasive coronary imaging has recently seen a rapid expansion of interest, fuelled largely by technical advances in both computed tomography (CT) and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR). The race is on for these two modalities to provide routine and robust imaging of coronary arteries in clinical practice. The rate of this progress has inevitably provided a bewildering array of develop...
