External Validation of Atherosclerotic Neuroimaging Biomarkers in Emergent Large‐Vessel Occlusion
Background Intracranial atherosclerosis related large vessel occlusion (ICAS‐LVO) is the major cause of failed mechanical thrombectomy. ICAS‐LVO causes reocclusion or a fixed focal stenosis, leading to suboptimal revascularization and poor functional ...

Prevalence of obstructive coronary artery disease and prognosis in patients with stable symptoms and a zero-coronary calcium score [PDF]
© The Author 2017. Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the European Society of Cardiology.Aims: CT calcium scoring (CTCS) and CT cardiac angiography (CTCA) are widely used in patients with stable chest pain to exclude significant coronary ...

Computed Tomography Coronary Angiography
Recent developments in computed tomography technology have made imaging of the coronary arteries possible. All the same, the rapid motion and small dimensions of the coronary vessels make coronary computed tomography angiography (coronary CTA) challenging.
