Positron emission tomography (PET) has contributed significantly to advancing our understanding of heart physiology and pathophysiology for more than 25 years. Despite its clear success in research applications, the restricted availability of this technology, its increased cost and limited data supporting its use and reimbursement have all contributed to the relatively limited clinical acceptance…

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…

During the last decade, three-dimensional (3-D) imaging has rapidly become an essential part of the visualization tools used in a variety of diagnostic procedures in radiology. With the latest generation of multi-detector computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners it is possible to acquire high-resolution dynamic images of the heart in a single breath-hold. These…

Dr Gregg W Stone (Mount Sinai Heart Health System, New York, US) and Dr Harriette Van Spall (McMaster University, Hamilton, CA) discuss the latest results from the ISCHEMIA trial.
The trial assessed the impact of completeness of revascularization on clinical outcomes in patients with stable ischemic heart disease treated with an invasive versus conservative strategy.
Recorded remotely from New…
