Appropriate criteria for the use of cardiac computed tomography angiography [PDF]
European Heart Journal - Cardiovascular Imaging, 2012 Dear Editor, We have read with great interest the manuscript recently published in your journal by Jin Kim et al. entitled: ‘Meaning of zero coronary calcium score in symptomatic patients referred for coronary computed tomographic angiography’.1 We completely agree with their conclusions; as it has been shown in different series previously published ...

A case of dyspnoea evaluated by cardiac computed tomography angiography [PDF]
Indian Heart Journal, 2012 A 1-year-old boy presented with failure to thrive and dyspnoea of 4 months duration. He was evaluated and found to be malnourished. His clinical examination revealed a pansystolic murmur at the left parasternal border with no jugular venous pressure (JVP) elevation or other features of heart failure.

Coronary computed tomography angiography: a new wave of cardiac imaging [PDF]
Internal Medicine Journal, 2012 AbstractCoronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) is becoming a popular non‐invasive imaging modality for coronary arteries. It has high sensitivity and specificity in the evaluation of coronary artery disease (CAD). Due to its high negative predictive value, the main clinical role of coronary CTA is in the exclusion of significant CAD in the low ...

Role of computed tomography cardiac angiography in acute chest pain syndromes
Heart, 2023 Use of CT coronary angiography (CTCA) to evaluate chest pain has rapidly increased over the recent years. While its utility in the diagnosis of coronary artery disease in stable chest pain syndromes is clear and is strongly endorsed by international guidelines, the role of CTCA in the acute setting is less certain.

Role of Cardiac Multidetector Computed Tomography Beyond Coronary Angiography
Circulation Journal, 2015 Cardiac multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) has become a useful noninvasive modality for anatomical imaging of coronary artery disease (CAD). Currently, the main clinical advantage of coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) appears to be related to its high negative predictive value at low or intermediate pretest probability for CAD.
