Noninvasive detection of coronary lesions using 16-detector multislice spiral computed tomography technology: initial clinical results.
OBJECTIVES The aim of our study was to evaluate the feasibility of detecting coronary artery lesions using a new computed tomography (CT) scanner with 16 detectors and faster gantry rotation. BACKGROUND Computed tomography angiography of the coronaries permits assessment of the coronaries; however, image quality is still impaired by motion artifacts and calcifications. METHODS Sixty patient...
متن کاملCardiac applications of multislice computed tomography.
Netherlands Multislice CT (MSCT) is gaining clinical acceptance for cardiac imaging owing to improved temporal and spatial resolution of the latest 16-slice and 64-slice technology. Although the cardiac MSCT applications are promising, there is still room for further technical improvements and optimization of post-processing techniques for cardiac evaluation. Interestingly, the data acquired fo...
متن کاملVirtual 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...
متن کاملMultislice Spiral Computed Tomography in Cardiac Imaging
Objective: Multislice computed tomography is an emerging technology with the potential for non-invasive coronary investigation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and limitations of multislice computed tomography in the detection of coronary artery disease. Patients and Methods: Multislice computed tomography was performed in symptomatic patients with atypical chest pain and ...
متن کاملMultislice Computed Tomography Coronary Angiography: Prime Time?
Rev Esp Cardiol. 2005;58(11):1253-7 1253 Multi-Slice Computed Tomography (MSCT) coronary angiography is emerging as a non-invasive clinically reliable diagnostic tool to detect significant (luminal diameter > 50%) coronary stenosis. The diagnostic accuracy of MSCT is high, but at this point in time, MSCT coronary angiography should be regarded mainly as a research tool and in selected patients ...
