Noninvasive coronary angiography with multislice computed tomography.
CONTEXT Multislice computed tomography (MSCT) has recently evolved as a modality for noninvasive coronary imaging. OBJECTIVE To assess the accuracy and robustness of MSCT vs the criterion standard of invasive coronary angiography for detection of obstructive coronary artery disease. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PATIENTS Prospective, single-center study conducted in a referral center setting in Germ...
متن کاملNovel Treatment Approach to Ascending Aorta Pseudoaneurysms: A Case Report
The pseudoaneurysm of the aorta is rarely due to trauma and infection but usually is a late complication of previous surgical procedures like coronary artery bypass graft surgery. We describe a 65-year-old woman with the pseudoaneurysm of the ascending aorta due to coronary artery bypass graft surgery. It was revealed in coronary artery angiography after nonspecific symptoms. It was confirmed b...
متن کاملVentricular septum rupture after myocardial infarction demonstrated by multislice computed tomography.
A71-year-old man was referred to the emergency department of our hospital for chest pain associated with intense interscapular pain. At presentation, a significant difference in systolic/diastolic blood pressure between the left and right arm was measured, and shortly thereafter, the patient developed severe hypotension. Accordingly, multislice computed tomography (MSCT) of the chest was perfor...
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...
