State of the art of coronary computed tomography angiography

Radiography, 2020
The aim of this paper is to evaluate contrast media (CM) bolus geometry and opacification patterns in the coronary arteries with particular focus on patient, scanner and safety considerations during coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA).The rapid evolution of computed tomography (CT) technology has seen this imaging modality challenge ...

Computed tomography coronary angiography in asymptomatic patients

La radiologia medica, 2011
This study assessed the accuracy of computed tomography coronary angiography (CT-CA) for detecting significant coronary artery disease (CAD; ≥50% lumen reduction) in intermediate/high-risk asymptomatic patients.A total of 183 consecutive asymptomatic individuals (92 men; mean age 54±11 years) with more than one major risk factor (obesity, hypertension,

Potential Indications for Coronary Angiography by Computed Tomography

The American Heart Hospital Journal, 2005
Recent advances in computed tomography technology have made possible angiographic images of relatively small, moving vascular structures such as the coronary arteries. Computed tomographic coronary angiography is an exciting modality which has several obvious advantages over invasive catheterization, such as its relatively noninvasive nature and rapid ...

Coronary angiography with multi-slice computed tomography

The Lancet, 2001
A new generation of subsecond multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT) scanners, which allow complete coronary coverage, are becoming widely available. We investigated the potential value of MSCT angiography in a range of coronary disorders.We studied 35 patients, including 11 who had undergone percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty and four who ...

Noninvasive coronary angiography using computed tomography

Expert Review of Cardiovascular Therapy, 2005
While noninvasive imaging of the coronary lumen remains challenging, great strides have been made with computed tomography. Two variations of computed tomography are used in the study of the coronary tree: multislice or multidetector computed tomography and electron-beam computed tomography.
