a single breath-hold scan of the heart required slice widths of at least 3 mm. The resulting axial resolution was therefore limited and not adequate for 3D visualization of the coronary arteries. With the advent of subsecond rotation
A cardiac computerized tomography (CT) scan – which can also be referred to as a coronary CT angiography or CT angiogram – is an imaging test to view the heart and blood vessels. It is a test that carries few risks and is less invasive than alternative procedures such as an angiogram....
Comprehensive cardiac CT scan may give clearer picture of significant heart diseaseA team of researchers led by Massachusetts General Hospital radiologists has developed a computed-tomography-based protocol that identifies both narrowing of coronary arteries and areas of myocardial ischemia -- restricted ...

While acknowledging variable accuracy overall with CT-derived fractional flow reserve (FFR-CT) values, researchers found that the accuracy rate increased to 90 percent for FFR-CT values greater > 0.90 and < 0.49. Diagnostic Imaging's Weekly Scan: April 21-April 27 Diagnostic Imaging Staff April ...
It is still unknown if having a previous CT scan increases the chance of cancer in youngsters, or if getting another one increases the risk. Furthermore, it is unclear if pediatric CT exposure raises a child's cancer risk to a higher degree than it does for children who are not exposed....
s right atrium for the implant, and the device’s positioning was “optimized” before being released. A second TEE scan confirmed the device had been successfully implanted. The patient was discharged after four days of recovery, anda permanent pacemaker was required after three weeks due to ...
STIC scan stitches multiple 2D images into 3D object, over various time points. The scans provided 27 volume images for 1 cardiac cycle, each of which was a stack of 27 image slices spaced 0.5 mm apart. The study protocol was approved by the Domain Specific Review Board of the National ...
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death and disease burden worldwide. Nuclear myocardial perfusion imaging with either single-photon emission computed tomography or positron emission tomography has been used extensively to perform diagnosis, monitor therapies, and predict cardiovascular ev...
