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 کاملMultiple atrial septal defects in multidetector-row computed tomography.
A 70-year-old-man was referred to our hospital for percutaneous closure of a secundum atrial septal defect (ASD). His transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) showed 2 left-to-right ASDs with a pulmonary/systemic flow ratio (Q p/Q s) of 1.89 and normal left ventricular function. Cardiac computed tomography (CT) using 320-detector row CT (Aquilion ONE VISION edition, Toshiba Medical Systems, Tokyo, ...
متن کاملMalignant anomalous right coronary artery detected by multidetector row computed tomography coronary angiography
We report a case of an anomalous origin of a right coronary artery from the left coronary sinus with an inter-arterial course, between the aorta and the main pulmonary artery. This variant has been called malignant because of its association with sudden death, especially in young asymptomatic athletes. Although these variants are rare, knowledge of cross sectional anatomy of the coronary arteri...
متن کاملMultidetector-row computed tomography management of acute pulmonary embolism.
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate the usefulness and safety of multidetector-row computed tomography (MDCT) pulmonary angiography and indirect venography management of acute pulmonary embolism (PE), including indication for inferior vena cava (IVC) filter. METHODS AND RESULTS Seventy-one consecutive patients who were clinically suspected of PE and underwent 16-slice MDCT pu...
متن کاملAccuracy of 64-multidetector-row computed tomography in the diagnosis of coronary artery disease.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this prospective study was to assess the accuracy of 64-multidetector-row computed tomography coronary angiography (CTA) in the diagnosis of coronary artery disease (CAD). PATIENTS AND METHODS Ninety-two patients suspected of having CAD underwent CTA using a 64-slice CT scanner before a scheduled, conventional coronary angiogram (CCA). Blinded assessment of CTA to detect...
