What is a CT Coronary Angiogram CT scans have been used to look at various anatomic regions, but have not been useful for the heart because the heart is continuously in motion. CT is very effective in looking at “static” areas, such as the brain, abdominal cavity, and extremities. Most...
For more than 50 years 1 the 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 system for catheter-based or surgical intervention to the heart, its chambers, ...
Computed tomography angiography (CTA) of the heart is a rapidly evolving application for comprehensive assessment of coronary arterial anatomy, myocardial
HeartFlow Analysis: This technology uses artificial intelligence and your CT coronary angiogram to diagnose coronary artery disease and evaluate blockages. This helps us determine the severity of your disease. And yourcare teamcan then use that information to determine the best treatment options for yo...
Reports of coronary involvement by IgG4 RD are scarce and we could find only 16 case reports in the literature. Here, we present a case of a 61-year-old lady, with no known comorbidities, who presented with rapid progression of coronary artery stenosis. Initially, she presented with mild ...
Coronary computed tomographic (CT) angiography, which can detect plaque buildup in heart vessels, is sometimes used as a screening tool to assess the risk for a heart attack. However, the usefulness of the test on low-risk patients who do not have coronary symptoms, such as chest pain, has...
0626T Intraprocedural coronary fractional flow reserve (FFR) with 3D functional mapping of color-hyphencoded FFR values for the coronary tree, derived from coronary angiogram data, for real-hyphentime review and interpretation of possible atherosclerotic stenosis(es) intervention (List separately in addi...
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....
Noninvasive coronary angiography with 16-detector row CT: effect of heart rate. PURPOSE: To evaluate the effect of heart rate on the quality of coronary angiograms obtained with 16-detector row computed tomography (CT) by using temporally enhanced three-dimensional (3D) appr...
PURPOSE: To retrospectively compare image quality, radiation dose, and blood vessel assessability for coronary artery computed tomographic (CT) angiograms ... JP Earls,EL Berman,BA Urban,... - 《Radiology》 被引量: 1615发表: 2008年 Coronary CT angiography: current status and continuing challenges...
