Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the application value of 64-row spiral CT coronary angiography(CAG)in myocardial bridge (MB)and mural coronary artery(MCA) .Methods Imaging data of 436 consecutive subjects underwent coronary CT angiography in Hospital of Beijing Puren were enrolled in this study .The prevalence ,clinical effects of patients ,precise location and incidence of each branch were evaluated .In addition ,the length and depth of MB ,as well as their relationship with MCA in stenosis were evalua-ted .Moreover ,the group of subjects with MB was compared with the control group(subjects without MB)in the probability of ath-erosclerosis .Results Among the total of 436 subjects ,76 subjects(17 .4% ,76/436)were found to have MB .The left anterior de-scending artery(LAD)was the most common coronary artery involved(68 .4% ,52/76) .The pressure level of MCA associated with the length and depth of MB .A significant difference was found between the LAD-MB-MCA group and the control group in the presence of coronary artery plaques(P<0 .05) .Conclusion The anatomic relation between MB and MCA can be precisely displayed on 64-row spiral CT coronary angiography ,which is considered to be an excellent diagnostic method to screen MB-MCA initially . There is a relationship between stenosis of MCA and the length and depth of MB .The present and stenosis of MB-MCA are meant to form coronary artery plaques in LAD segment more easily .
