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 کاملLow-dose multidetector CT angiography in the evaluation of infrarenal aorta and peripheral arterial occlusive disease.
PURPOSE To investigate the ionizing radiation dose, image quality, and diagnostic performance of computed tomographic (CT) angiography of the peripheral arteries with three different CT angiographic acquisition protocols, with use of pretreatment digital subtraction angiography (DSA) as the reference standard. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study was approved by the institutional review board and ...
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 کاملImaging 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 کاملPrevalence and calcification of intracranial arterial stenotic lesions as assessed with multidetector computed tomography angiography.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Intracranial arterial stenosis (ICAS) in patients with recent ischemic stroke is associated with a high risk of recurrent stroke. More insight into the pathophysiology of ICAS could help identify patients at high risk requiring more aggressive secondary prevention. We evaluated the prevalence, distribution, calcification, and the risk factors predisposing ICAS in a Europe...
