High-definition multidetector computed tomography for evaluation of coronary artery stents: comparison to standard-definition 64-detector row computed tomography.

BACKGROUND The assessment of coronary stents with present-generation 64-detector row computed tomography scanners that use filtered backprojection and operating at standard definition of 0.5-0.75 mm (standard definition, SDCT) is limited by imaging artifacts and noise. OBJECTIVES We evaluated the performance of a novel, high-definition 64-slice CT scanner (HDCT), with improved spatial resolut...
