Diagnostic accuracy of subendocardial vs. transmural myocardial perfusion defect for the detection of in-stent restenosis or progression of coronary artery disease after percutaneous coronary intervention
J Cardiovasc Comput Tomogr
The ADVANTAGE study demonstrated in a cohort of stented patients a diagnostic accuracy of stress myocardial CT perfusion (CTP) significantly higher than that of coronary CT angiography (CCTA) for the detection of in-stent restenosis (ISR) or CAD progression vs. quantitative coronary angiography (QCA). This is a pre-defined subanalysis of the ADVANTAGE aimed at assessing the difference in terms of diagnostic accuracy vs. QCA of a subendocardial vs. a transmural perfusion defect using static stress CTP.
