Coronary computed tomography angiography [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Medical Association Journal, 2015
Contrast medium is injected intravenously, and multidetector technology is used to take an image of the heart during a single breath hold (acquisition time ~8 s for 64 detectors). Blockade is recommended for patients with heart rates faster than 65 beats/min to improve image quality and to ...

Cardiovascular risk stratification by coronary computed tomography angiography imaging: current state-of-the-art.

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Preventive Cardiology, 2021
Current cardiovascular risk stratification by use of clinical risk score systems or plasma biomarkers is good but less than satisfactory in identifying patients at residual risk for coronary events.

Optimizing the diagnosis and assessment of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension with advancing imaging modalities

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, 2021
Imaging is key to nearly all aspects of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension including management for screening, assessing eligibility for pulmonary endarterectomy, and post-operative follow-up. While ventilation/perfusion scintigraphy, the gold

Coronary computed tomography angiography in children [PDF]

open access: yesPediatric Radiology, 2021
Imaging the coronary arteries of children, with their faster heart rates, small vessel size and common inability to lie still or breath-hold, has been a major challenge. With numerous advances in technology, CT examinations can now be performed quickly, often with children free-breathing and with much lower radiation doses than previously. This has led

Association of Lipoprotein (a) With Coronary-Computed Tomography Angiography–Assessed High-Risk Coronary Disease Attributes and Cardiovascular Outcomes

open access: yesCirculation Cardiovascular Imaging, 2022
Background: Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is a risk factor for cardiovascular events. This study evaluated the relationship between Lp(a) and high-risk attributes by coronary computed tomography angiography as well as their prognostic value.

“Distal bright vessel sign” – Novel radiological sign of pulmonary thromboembolism

open access: yesRadiology Case Reports, 2020
We describe a novel radiological sign of pulmonary thromboembolism on computed tomography aortic angiogram. It consists of focal hyperenhancement of pulmonary arteries distal to the pulmonary thrombus, while the thrombus itself remains occult and the ...

Lokelma's Interaction With Computed Tomography Angiography

open access: yesAnnals of Internal Medicine: Clinical Cases, 2023
A hospitalized 58-year-old man with hyperkalemia received oral Lokelma. Computed tomography angiography was performed due to concern for gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding, which demonstrated radiopaque material throughout the GI tract, even though no oral ...

Acute Pulmonary Embolism: Prognostic Role of Computed Tomography Pulmonary Angiography (CTPA)

open access: yesTomography, 2022
Computed Tomography Pulmonary Angiography (CTPA) is considered the gold standard diagnostic technique in patients with suspected acute pulmonary embolism in emergency departments. Several studies have been conducted on the predictive value of CTPA on the

Correlation of Multidetector Computed Tomography Peripheral Angiography with Color Duplex Sonography in Peripheral Arterial Disease

open access: yesJournal of Nepal Health Research Council, 2022
Background: With aging of the global population peripheral arterial disease is increasingly common. Arteriography, computed tomography angiography and magnetic resonance angiography are common modalities used for evaluation of peripheral arterial ...
