Coronary endothelial dysfunction and non-contrast multidetector computed tomography.
Previous authors have evaluated endothelial dysfunction after intracoronary infusion of acetylcholine by Doppler flow wire (coronary blood flow) or invasive coronary angiography (coronary artery vasodilation).4–6 More recent reports have shown that non-invasive assessment of myocardial blood flow (MBF) by positron emission tomography (PET) can effectively evaluate coronary endothelial dysfuncti...
متن کاملMultidetector-Row Computed Tomography Coronary Angiography
onsiderable progress has recently been achieved in the field of noninvasive imaging of the coronary arteries by computed tomography (CT). Multidetector-row CT (MDCT) scanners are equipped with thinner detectors and have a shorter rotation time, which enables considerably faster volume coverage with a thinner slice width during a single breath hold. The entire heart volume can be covered with ne...
متن کاملcurrent applications of coronary and cardiac multidetector computed tomography
cardiovascular disease remains the principal cause of death in the modernized world. several novel noninvasive imaging techniques have been recently developed to improve diagnosis of cardiac and coronary disease. of these advances, multidetector computed tomographic (mdct) angiography has evolved most dramatically to transform computed tomography from a single-slice trans-axial modality to ...
متن کامل[Multidetector computed tomography of the coronary veins and resynchronization therapy].
The effectiveness of intraventricular synchrony correction by cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) has been correlated with electrocatheter (EKT) positioning in the coronary veins. Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) with contrast administration allows precise, noninvasive visualization of the coronary arteries, as well as the anatomy and distribution of the coronary veins. With this te...
متن کاملPrognostic Value of Multidetector Computed Tomography Coronary Angiography in Diabetes
OBJECTIVE To assess the prognostic role of multidetector computed tomography coronary angiography (MDCT-CA) in patients with diabetes with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD). Use of MDCT-CA is increasing in patients with suspected CAD. However, data supporting its prognostic value in patients with diabetes are limited. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Between January 2006 and September 2007, ...
