Protocol Fundamentals for Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography
Author(s): Frank J Rybicki Added: 3 years ago
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

We are at a considerable crossroads in medicine and cardiology. The Affordable Care Act may provide us with more coverage for needed preventive services and provide 35 million people with some form of healthcare coverage, but the overall ‘pie’ of healthcare dollars will be shrinking, in an attempt to forestall the failure of Medicare and the further debt spending of the US. A call for a balanced… View more

The term is appropriately applied to the complex transformation that the clinical practice of cardiac computed tomography (CT) continues to undergo. In the early and mid… View more

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects approximately 26 million people in the US.1 CKD is considered a coronary risk equivalent and also a risk factor for progression of cardiovascular disease (CVD).2 Cardiovascular death rates are 10–30 times higher in dialysis patients than in the general population.3 This increase in CKD patients is multifactorial and is now mainly considered via two pathways:… View more

Cardiac computed tomography (CT), and in particular computed tomographic coronary angiography (CTCA), stand poised to revolutionize the way in which cardiac pathology is diagnosed, and change the way in which decisions are made with regards to invasive treatment of cardiac disease. In particular, the diagnosis of coronary disease (the number one killer of patients in modern societies) will be… View more
