Effectiveness of Dual-Source CT Coronary Angiography for the Evaluation of Coronary Artery Disease in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation: Initial Experience

Abstract: Dual-source CT technology provides a temporal resolution that allows CT coronary angiography at higher heart rates and even with AF.

“…In contrast to MDCT systems with lower temporal resolution, dual-source technology has demonstrated sufficient clinical robustness, even in the presence of arrhythmias (23) and without the use of negative chronotropic pretreatment in patients with higher heart rates (12-18, 29, 30). In this study, we evaluated arteries, excluding non-diagnostic segments from analysis.…”

“…The results of the CCTA detection of significant stenoses (lesions >50%) were compared with the results of conventional coronary angiography according on a: (a) per-segment basis, comparing each segment in every vessel; (b) per-vessel basis, looking for the presence of significant lesions of the major coronary vessels; and (c) per-patient basis, looking for the presence of any significant stenotic vessel lesions in each patient (2,(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)23).…”

“…Bu teknik iyileşmeler 1 saniyenin altında koroner arter ve miyokardiyal perfüzyon görüntüleme yapılabilmesine ve zor hasta gruplarında (aritmik, obez, yüksek kalp hızlı, pediyatrik, nefes tutamayan ve stentli hastalar) tetkik kalitesinin iyileşmesine olanak sağlamıştır [4][5][6]. Kardiyak BT ile koroner arterlerin yanı sıra, yüksek çözünürlüklü pulmoner ven, atriyum ve ventriküllerin anatomisi, varyasyonları ve patolojileri saptanabilmektedir [7].…”

“…One small study has reported on an initial experience of coronary CTA in 15 patients (mean age 58 years) with atrial fibrillation and suspected coronary disease referred for invasive angiography. 98 Imaging was done with a 64-channel dual-source CT, which provides a nominal temporal resolution of about one fourth of a gantry rotation or about 83 milliseconds. The mean heart rate during imaging of the study cohort was 84Ϯ9 beats per minute.…”
