Prospective-triggered high-pitch spiral versus sequential dual-source CT coronary angiography: comparison of image quality and radiation dose
Background: Prospectively electrocardiography (ECG)-triggered high-pitch spiral coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is a unique scan mode for dual-source CT (DSCT). Our reports aim to compare image quality and radiation dose of CCTA using high-pitch spiral or sequential acquisition mode in patients with low and stable heart rates. Materials and Methods: Patients with low and stable ...
متن کاملDual source computed tomography coronary angiography in new onset cardiomyopathy.
AIM To evaluate safety and utility of coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) compared to invasive coronary angiography (ICA) in new cardiomyopathy. METHODS Eighteen patients (mean age 56.5 years, 10 males) who presented for evaluation of new onset heart failure with evidence of systolic dysfunction (ejection fraction < 40%) on echocardiography and recent ICA were prospectively enroll...
متن کاملAccuracy of dual-source computed tomography coronary angiography: evaluation with a standardised protocol for cardiac surgeons.
BACKGROUND This study assesses the accuracy of the new dual-source computed tomography (DSCT) for detection of coronary artery disease (CAD) compared with invasive coronary angiography (ICA) with a specifically designed data presentation protocol for cardiac surgeons. METHODS Forty patients (30 males/10 females) underwent ICA and DSCT. Best-quality images were prepared by radiologists. Evalua...
متن کاملImage Quality of 256-Slice Computed Tomography for Coronary Angiography.
PURPOSE To assess the image quality of 256-slice computed tomographic angiography (CTA) and to identify possible impact factors associated with image quality. METHODS From November 2009 to January 2010, 506 patients underwent 256-slice CTA at our institute. A total of 451 patients were enrolled in our study, after 55 patients were excluded because of prior bypass surgery and stenting. CTA ima...
متن کاملRadiation dose and physical image quality in 128‐section dual‐source computed tomographic coronary angiography: a phantom study
One-hundred-and-twenty-eight-section dual X-ray source computed tomography (CT) systems have been introduced into clinical practice and have been shown to increase temporal resolution. Higher temporal resolution allows low-dose spiral mode at a high pitch factor during CT coronary angiography. We evaluated radiation dose and physical image qualities in CT coronary angiography by applying high-p...
