Myocardial Late Enhancement With Photon-Counting Detector CT in Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection: Prospective Comparison With Cardiac MRI.
Cardiovascular Imaging 1 min.
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is a rare cause of acute coronary syndrome and myocardial infarction. Accurate diagnosis is crucial for appropriate management. This study aimed to compare late enhancement (LE) imaging using photon-counting detector (PCD)-CT with cardiac MRI in patients...
Machine Learning Model for Atherosclerosis Evaluation and Cardiovascular Risk Prediction Based on Coronary CT Angiography-Analysis From the CREATION Registry.
Cardiovascular Imaging 1 min.
Current atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk prediction tools based on traditional risk factors and the coronary artery calcium score have limitations. METHODS: The CREATION study includes patients with suspected coronary artery disease who underwent coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA)...
Optimal approach to performing and reporting computed tomography angiography for suspected acute pulmonary embolism: a clinical consensus statement of the ESC Working Group on Pulmonary Circulation & Right Ventricular Function, the Fleischner Society, the Association for Acute CardioVascular Care (ACVC) and the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging (EACVI) of the ESC, endorsed by European Respiratory Society (ERS), Asian Society of Thoracic Radiology (ASTR), European Society of Thoracic Imaging (ESTI), and Society of Thoracic Radiology (STR)
Cardiovascular Imaging 1 min.
Computed tomography angiography (CTA) is the modality used most frequently for diagnosing acute pulmonary embolism (PE). Given the vast amount of information that can be extracted from CTA, the CTA report should be written in a way that conveys all relevant findings using standardized nomenclature and...
Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and cardiovascular risk in the absence of calcifications on computed tomography: the Western Denmark Heart Registry
Cardiovascular Imaging 1 min.
Coronary atherosclerosis tends to be non-calcified at early stages, questioning the implications of a coronary artery calcification score of zero (CAC = 0) at younger ages. This study investigates whether elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is associated with the presence of non-calcified...
