Coronary CTA has additional advantages over invasive coronary angiography Invasive angiography focuses only on the lumen, whereas CTA provides information on the extent and characterization of plaque.

A coronary angiogram is basically an X-ray photograph of the heart's arteries to look for blockages. It should NOT be done to diagnose coronary artery disease (CAD) in a stable patient, as this is ...

Recent developments in the novel imaging technology of cardiac computed tomography (CT) not only permit detailed assessment of cardiac anatomy but also provide insight into cardiovascular physiology.

In this prospective open-label, parallel-group, multicentre trial, we recruited patients aged 18–75 years referred for the assessment of suspected angina due to coronary heart disease from 12 ...

Detection and characterization of atherosclerotic plaque by CT coronary angiography in non-left main “true” coronary bifurcations can provide useful information about bifurcation anatomy and plaque ...

A study has found that the anti-clotting medication prasugrel reduced cardiovascular events among patients who present with an acute coronary syndrome and are managed medically after an angiogram ...
