Abstract:
Objective To observe the diagnostic value of non-invasive 128-slice computed tomography coronary angiography(CTA)in comparison with invasive coronary angiography.Methods 128-slice CTA and invasive coronary angiography were performed in 78 unselected consecutive patients(63 patients with suspected coronary artery disease and 15 patients with previous coronary stenting,56 males,mean age 61±10 years)and >50% reduction of minimal lumen diameter was defined as significant coronary stenosis.Results Fifty-eight out of 879 segments(7%)from CTA were not assessable because of irreguldr rhythm,vessel calcification or tachycardia.Compared with invasive coronary angiography,segmentbased analysis from the 821 segments showed the sensitivity by CTA was 87%,specificity 97%,PPV 83% and NPV 97%.Four out of 22 stents implanted in 15 patients were not assessable by CTA because of poor image quality.Compared with invasive coronary angiography,the sensitivity of diagnosing in-stent restenosis by CTA was 100%,specificity 77%,PPV 63% and NPV 100% for the remaining 18 stents-Conclusions One hundred and twenty-eight-slice CTA has a high accuracy for detecting coronary artery disease and instent restenosis after coronary stenting and could be considered as a valuable noninvasive technique for screening coronary artery disease in suspected patients.
