Evaluation of Coronary Venous Anatomy by Multislice Computed Tomography
Background: The coronary venous system is increasingly targeted for pacing in patients with severe heart failure. The recent advancement of Multi-Detector Computed Tomography (MDCT) allows accurate analysis of the coronary arteries, but little data exist on its role in assessing cardiac venous anatomy. The aim of the present study was to investigate the feasibility of using MDCT in evaluating t...
متن کاملAssessment of Mitral Paravalvular Leakage After Mitral Valve Replacement Using Cardiac Computed Tomography
Paravalvular leakage (PVL) is uncommon but potentially serious complication after valve replacement, which occurs 7% to 17% after mitral valve replacement (MVR) and 2% to 10% after aortic valve replacement. Although most PVLs are asymptomatic and have a benign clinical course, an estimated 1% to 5% of patients with PVLs show serious clinical consequences, with especially more undesirable outcom...
متن کاملAssessment of bioabsorbable scaffolds by multislice computed tomography angiography.
Even with recent advances in computed tomography (CT) imaging of coronary stents, blooming is still an important limitation in the assessment of stents. Recently, the introduction of bioabsorbable radiolucent scaffolds has allowed almost unrestricted imaging of the stent lumen. A 68-year-old man with a history of coronary artery disease was admitted with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction. ...
متن کاملNoninvasive coronary angiography with multislice computed tomography.
CONTEXT Multislice computed tomography (MSCT) has recently evolved as a modality for noninvasive coronary imaging. OBJECTIVE To assess the accuracy and robustness of MSCT vs the criterion standard of invasive coronary angiography for detection of obstructive coronary artery disease. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PATIENTS Prospective, single-center study conducted in a referral center setting in Germ...
متن کاملMultislice computed tomography for detection of patients with aortic valve stenosis and quantification of severity.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether multislice computed tomography (MSCT) provides a reliable, noninvasive imaging modality for identification of patients with degenerative aortic valve stenosis (AS) by quantifying the aortic valve area (AVA) in comparison to the accepted diagnostic standard transthoracic echocardiography (TTE). BACKGROUND Management of patients with ...
