早在EBCT时期,冠状动脉钙化积分(coronary artery calcium score,CACS)作为血管钙化斑块负荷的经典评价方法,被广泛用于冠心病的危险分层沿用至今。多种族动脉粥样硬化研究(multi-ethnic study of atherosclerosis,MESA)中,率先使用了CACS指标预测冠心病预后,其结果显示C...
all available CT protocol types. CT types used for training were NLST CT examinations, coronary artery calcium scoring CT (CAC-CT), PET attenuation correction (ACPET) CT, diagnostic chest CT, radiation therapy treatment planning (RTP) CT, and CT examinations from the Jackson Heart Study (JHS)...
standard CT only imaging exams as well. The CT scan anatomical imaging can be fused with the nuclear PET imaging to show anatomical landmarks. The CT component can also be used in cardiac PET to perform a coronary calcium scoring exam to offer a risk assessment for future heart attack risk...
Member's most recent CAC scan was at least 5 years ago; and Discovery of coronary calcium would change management. Aetna considers calcium scoring by means of low-dose CT angiography medically necessary for persons who meet criteria for diagnostic cardiac CT angiography to assess whether an adequat...
Employing quantitative computed tomography, the staging system’s insights on stenosis, ischemia and coronary atherosclerosis may facilitate individualized assessments of heart disease risk. Study Shows CT-Based Coronary Artery Calcium Scores Are Predictive of MACE Risks in Cases of Stable Chest Pain Jeff...
Increased calcium total 2 2 7 Cardiomyopathy The adverse reaction profile described in this section was identified from randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind studies in patients with metastatic breast cancer who received the combination of the fluorouracil, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide (FAC) ...
on a per-patient basis. Although not yet implemented for all coronary MR angiography studies, the use of pharmacological patient preparation for heart rate control (e.g. beta-blocker) or coronary vessel diameter (e.g. nitroglycerine) is increasingly being used and does show benefits in image qu...
