Antegrade flow across incomplete vessel occlusions can be distinguished from retrograde collateral flow using 4-dimensional computed tomographic angiography.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In acute stroke patients with intracranial vessel occlusion, angiographic demonstration of antegrade contrast opacification distal to the occlusion site (termed the "clot outline sign") has been associated with higher rates of vessel recanalization. We sought to determine whether antegrade flow can be demonstrated on time-resolved 4-dimensional computed tomographic angiog...
متن کاملNoninvasive evaluation of coronary collateral arterial flow by coronary computed tomographic angiography.
BACKGROUND Coronary collateral flow is an alternative source of myocardial perfusion in patients with totally occluded coronary arteries. Clinical evaluation of collateral flow has been limited by the need of invasive measurements. We investigated whether noninvasive coronary computed tomographic angiography can evaluate the angiographic extent of coronary collateral flow. METHODS AND RESULTS...
متن کاملFractional Flow Reserve and Coronary Computed Tomographic Angiography
Background: Invasive Fractional Flow Reserve Obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) produces symptoms and increases the risk of adverse cardiac outcomes. However, determining whether a particular coronary stenosis is responsible for causing myocardial ischemia can be challenging, even with invasive coronary angiography (ICA). To help guide decisions in the cardiac catheterization laboratory,...
متن کاملUsing standard first-pass perfusion computed tomographic data to evaluate collateral flow in acute ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The study aims to determine whether volume transfer constant (K(trans)) maps calculated from first-pass perfusion computed tomographic data are a biomarker of cerebral collateral circulation and predict the clinical outcome in acute ischemic stroke caused by proximal arterial occlusion. METHODS Consecutive patients with acute occlusion of the middle cerebral artery who ...
متن کاملCost analysis of non-invasive fractional flow reserve derived from coronary computed tomographic angiography in Japan
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) based on fractional flow reserve (FFRcath) measurement during invasive coronary angiography (CAG) results in improved patient outcome and reduced healthcare costs. FFR can now be computed non-invasively from standard coronary CT angiography (cCTA) scans (FFRCT). The purpose of this study is to determine the potential impact of non-invasive FFRCT on costs...
