CAT of the coronary tree shows comparable accuracy to manual 3D analysis but needs improvements concerning coronary tree segmentation times. Read more

The aim of the study was to evaluate radiation exposure of a chest pain protocol with ECG-gated dual-source computed tomography (DSCT). Read more

The following question has been sent by KoYH: How can we get the images twice faster altough the two tubes have different keVs? Read the answer of Dr. Anja Reimann. Read more

To prospectively evaluate the effect of heart rate, heart rate variability, and calcification on dual-source computed tomography (CT) image quality and to prospectively assess diagnostic accuracy of dual-source CT for coronary artery stenosis, by using invasive coronary angiography as the reference standard. Read more

Functional analysis using MDCT has been limited by insufficient temporal resolution. The aim of this study was to assess the performance of a dual-source CT system with improved temporal resolution in the determination of both volume- or time-dependent functional parameters and regional wall motion in comparison with cine MRI.

To assess HU-based color mapping for characterization of coronary plaque, using intravascular ultrasound virtual histology (IVUS-VH) as a standard of reference. Dual-source computed tomography and IVUS-VH were prospectively performed in 13 patients. In five lesions, HU thresholds of the color-coding software were calibrated to IVUS-VH. In a 15-lesion verification cohort, … Read more
