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....
cardiac imagingcoronary stentingRevascularisation by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in chronic total occlusion (CTO) is often a technically challenging procedure. The manipulation of wires and devices through a CTO during PCI without any means to visually identify vessel-wall boundaries involves...
or both. For more than 50 years1the coronary angiogram has been used to define epicardial coronary disease. While conventional coronary arteriography provides exceptional spatial resolution and a general road map of the coronary
The most common reason for cardiac CT is to look for narrowing or blockage of coronary arteries. In some patients, this study may replace, or determine the need for, invasive catheter angiograms of the coronary arteries. This requires a relatively slow heart rate to avoid motion blurring, pref...
Ct Angiography in Ahmedabad- heart, and angiogram - also known as Coronary angiography is a procedure that manages a specialized color (also called contrast) and X-rays to imagine the flow of blood through your heart.

4. Ruling out stenoses before noncoronary cardiac surgery Cardiothoracic surgeons often require invasive coronary angiography to rule out CAS in patients who are scheduled for cardiac surgery for noncoronary reasons (eg, valve replacement or resection of tumors) or for surgery of the ascending aorta...
Each of these models was governed by several parameters that dictated the simulated cardiac function and coronary flow distributions. Model personalization was performed using a multi-stage optimization procedure. The first stage tuned the models to match patient-specific measurements of cardiac function ...

This results in similar radiation exposure as a comparable 5-s biplane cineangiogram across all phantom sizes (approximately 0.2 to 1.4 mSv) while maintaining image quality.
