Relationship between noninvasive coronary angiography with multi-slice computed tomography and myocardial perfusion imaging.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to perform a head-to-head comparison between multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT) and myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) in patients with an intermediate likelihood of coronary artery disease (CAD) and to compare non-invasive findings to invasive coronary angiography. BACKGROUND Multi-slice computed tomography detects atherosclerosis, whereas MPI detects...
متن کاملNoninvasive coronary angiography with multislice computed tomography.
CONTEXT Multislice computed tomography (MSCT) has recently evolved as a modality for noninvasive coronary imaging. OBJECTIVE To assess the accuracy and robustness of MSCT vs the criterion standard of invasive coronary angiography for detection of obstructive coronary artery disease. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PATIENTS Prospective, single-center study conducted in a referral center setting in Germ...
متن کاملNew Noninvasive Modalities in Coronary Angiography: Cardiac Computed Tomography Angiography
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity in most developed countries [1]. CAD is a common and sometimes disabling disorder, although medication therapy, percutaneous coronary intervention and coronary artery bypass grafting have developed recently. Medical doctors need to prevent from developing acute coronary syndrome. The development of non-invasive cardiac ...
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...
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...
