Panoramic Coronary Angiography
We describe a new imaging technique for coronary angiography.The conventional approach to coronary angiography exploits static perspective imaging over multiple cardiac cycles, using a limited number of empirically selected views. This approach entails both lack and redundancy of information and may result in suboptimal visualization of the individual ...

Diagnosis of obstructive coronary artery disease using computed tomography angiography in patients with stable chest pain depending on clinical probability and in clinically important subgroups: meta-analysis of individual patient data [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: To determine whether coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) should be performed in patients with any clinical probability of coronary artery disease (CAD), and whether the diagnostic performance differs between subgroups of patients.

The introduction of selective coronary angiography by Mason Sones in 1958 stands as a milestone in clinical cardiology. The procedure continues as a cornerstone in the evaluation of the coronary arteries and is indicated not only to diagnose coronary artery disease (CAD) but also to assess its severity.

Coronary atherosclerosis scoring with semiquantitative CCTA risk scores for prediction of major adverse cardiac events: Propensity score-based analysis of diabetic and non-diabetic patients. [PDF]
AIMS:We aimed to compare semiquantitative coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) risk scores - which score presence, extent, composition, stenosis and/or location of coronary artery disease (CAD) - and their prognostic value between patients ...
