Clinical results of minimally invasive coronary angiography using computed tomography.

摘要: Fast, high-resolution CT techniques, such as EBCT and MDCT permit imaging of the coronary arteries. Continuous improvements in capabilities both technologies for visualization lumen detection artery stenoses are being made. Image quality currently is not robust enough all patients to consider non-invasive angiography by a routine clinical tool. In selected carefully performed, however, they show promise means exclude presence fashion. This may become beneficial important application these technologies. Other possible applications pertain smaller patient subsets, with anomalous arteries, fistulas or aneurysms. The development techniques visualize non-calcified plaque interesting respect assessment risk, but this requires further investigation.
