Previously considered to be separate disease entities, the acute coronary syndromes (ACS) are somewhat arbitrarily divided on the basis of their electrocardiographic manifestations and are now thought to arise from a common disease process. Based on a number of factors, the severity of the ACS and, consequently, their attendant clinical risk may vary. The management of patients with ACS should… View more

According to Myerburg and Costellanos, the introduction of cardiac revascularization to medicine (coronary artery bypass grafting [CABG]) almost 50 years ago led to a decline in the age-adjusted mortality from coronary artery disease (CAD),1 but brought no change to the fraction of coronary deaths that are sudden and unexpected.1 Of the 650,000 who die annually in the US of CAD, 300,000–350,000… View more

Most advances in cardiac computed tomography (CT), particularly coronary CT angiography (CTA), have come from the development of protocols consistent with rapid incremental improvements in CT technology. The evolution of cardiac CT from early technology has been paralleled with evolving protocols that have extended cardiac CT beyond the imaging of coronary arteries alone: current applications… View more
