Valoración no invasiva de injertos aortocoronarios y coronarias nativas con tomografía computarizada de 64 detectores: comparación con la coronariografía invasiva
Introduccion y objetivos Aunque la tomografia computarizada (TC) multidetector muestra una elevada exactitud diagnostica en la valoracion no invasiva de las arterias coronarias e injertos, son escasos los trabajos que valoren su fiabilidad en el estudio conjunto de vasos nativos, injertos y vasos distales a las anastomosis. El objetivo de este estudio es valorar la exactitud diagnostica de la TC de 64 detectores en la valoracion de injertos coronarios y arterias coronarias nativas. Metodos Se estudia con TC de 64 detectores a 36 pacientes revascularizados quirurgicamente e indicacion clinica de evaluacion angiografica de sus injertos. Se analizo la exactitud diagnostica de la TC para la det…
Non-Invasive Assessment of Coronary Artery Bypass Grafts and Native Coronary Arteries Using 64-Slice Computed Tomography: Comparison With Invasive Coronary Angiography
Introduction and objectives Although the diagnostic accuracy of CT in the non-invasive assessment of coronary arteries and grafts is known to be high, only a few studies have investigated the technique's reliability for the combined assessment of native coronary arteries, grafts, and vessels lying distal to anastomoses. The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of 64-slice CT for assessing coronary grafts and native coronary arteries. Methods In the study, 64-slice CT was used to evaluate 36 patients who had undergone coronary artery bypass graft surgery and had a clinical indication for angiographic graft assessment. The diagnostic accuracy of CT for identifying signifi…
