Multislice Computed Tomography Evaluation 21 Years After Heterotopic Heart Transplantation

Multislice Computed Tomography After Left Main Drug-Eluting Stenting

Coronary stenting has become the dominant therapy for patients referred for coronary revascularization. Because of their documented efficacy in reducing instent restenosis (ISR),1–3 drug-eluting stents (DES) are used for this purpose in most percutaneous revascularization procedures. Although intended primarily for use in native, de novo stenoses in coronary vessels 2.5 to 3.5 mm in diameter, D...

[Evaluation of coronary stent restenosis with multislice computed tomography].

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...

Virtual coronary angioscopy using multislice computed tomography.

BACKGROUND With faster image acquisition times and thinner slice widths, multislice detector computed tomography (MSCT) allows visualisation of human coronary arteries with diagnostic image quality. In addition to conventional axial slices, virtual coronary angioscopies (VCA) can be reconstructed using MSCT datasets. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the feasibility of reconstructing VCA and to determine...
