Imaging of coronary atherosclerosis with multi-slice computed tomography Pundziūtė, G.

Aims: This study sought to determine the prognostic value of multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT) coronary angiography in patients with known or suspected coronary artery

The region of interest corresponding to plaques observed on MSCT was defined using side branches and coronary ostia as landmarks. For each region of interest, the mean value of the

Differences in plaque composition and distribution in stable coronary artery disease versus acute coronary syndromes; non-invasive evaluation with multi-slice computed

Accordingly, the purpose of the study was to evaluate coronary plaque extent and composition on MSCT and to compare these findings with patterns of coronary atherosclerosis on

In the present study, less coronary plaques were observed in younger (<65 year old) women as compared with younger men both on MSCT and on gray-scale IVUS.. This observation

In Chapter 9, the hypothesis that different coronary plaque patterns (plaque extent and composition) may be observed both on MSCT and VH IVUS in patients presenting with

Bij patiënten met diabetes mellitus type 2 werden op MSCT voornamelijk gecalcificeerde plaques geïdentificeerd, tevens werd een grotere hoeveelheid kalk gezien bij deze patiënten op

Impact of coronary calcium score on diagnostic accuracy of multislice computed tomography coronary angiography for detection of coronary artery disease.. Gender influence on
