Diagnostic accuracy of coronary CT angiography performed in 100 consecutive patients with coronary stents using a whole-organ high-definition CT scanner
International Journal of Cardiology
To evaluate image quality, interpretability, diagnostic accuracy and radiation exposure of coronary CT angiography (CCTA) performed with a new scanner equipped with 0.23-mm spatial resolution, new generation iterative reconstruction, 0.28-second gantry rotation time and intra-cycle motion-correction algorithm in consecutive patients with coronary stents, including those with high heart rate (HR) and atrial fibrillation (AF).
