Cardiovascular computed tomography for diagnosis and risk stratification of coronary artery disease Werkhoven, J.M. van

The purpose of the current study was to assess the impact of clinical presentation and pre-test likelihood on the relationship between calcium score (CCS) and com- puted tomography

Non-invasive anatomic assessment of plaque burden, location, composition and remodel- ing using CTA may provide prognostically relevant information, incremental to not only the

The purpose of this study was therefore to study whether multi-slice computed tomography coronary angiography (MSCT) has incremental prognostic value over single photon

Incremental prognostic value of multi-slice computed tomography coronary angiography over coronary artery calcium scoring in patients with suspected coronary artery disease.. JM

Although none of the continuous LV function variables remained independent predictors of events, using the pre-defined cutoff values as markers for reduced LV function,

MSCTA has a high diagnostic accuracy for the detection of significant CAD (≥50% luminal narrowing) on conventional coronary angiography, 1-7 and may be particularly useful

Serial angiographic studies have indicated that the more obstructive a plaque is, the more frequently it progresses to coronary occlusion ( 38 and/or gives rise to myocardial

Because passive smoking has also been associated with an increased risk of events, 39-42 a similar interaction as observed between significant CAD and active smoking may exist
