Clinical Indications
Detection of CAD in symptomatic patients without known heart
disease,
CAD risk assessment in asymptomatic individuals
CAD detection in other cardiac conditions
Use of CT angiography after other test results
Use after revascularization
Evaluation of cardiac structure and function
Evaluation of intracardiac and extracardiac structures
CTO
Anomalous
Coronary Artery
• Limitation CACT in post coronary stenting :
• Image artifact from stent
• Small stent difficult to evaluate (<3 mm)
• New techniques with high definition CT may enable more accurate
detection of ISR
Scan Artifacts
It’s important misinterpretation
• Occures in condition
• High HR (>65 beats/mnt in single source scan)
• Misaligment of axial image (motion respiratory)
• Ectopic heart beats
• Abrupt changes in HR during scan
• High attenuating objects (metallic object, coronary calcium) an artefact called
“beam hardening”
1. Fibrotic
2. Fibrocalcific

image acquisition
• A low-energy topogram
determination of the adequate initiation of the coronary CTA image acquisition to ensure
homogeneous contrast enhancement of the entire coronary artery tree
• Two techniques:
CTO
Anomalous
Coronary Artery
