Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical value of Multi-slice Spiral CT(MSCT) and coronary artery imaging in diagnosing coronary artery myocardial bridges (MBs). Methods Image data of 285 patients from July 2005 to July 2008 who accepted both the MSCT and coronary angiography CAG at our hospital were collected. Diagnostic performance of the two Methods were analysed and the diagnostic accuracy were compared. Results In 285 cases of patients with MSCT examinations, 82 coronary artery were diagnosed in 59 cases, the detection rate of which was 20.7%. In contrast, 16 cases were diagnosed by CAG and the detection rate was 5.6%. In the 82 coronary artery diagnosed by MSCT, 42 coronary artery were single vessel, the proportion was 71.19%. Others were two vessels or three vessels. There were 67 in left anterior descending artery (LAD),in which 52 were near the middle and 15 were distal. 26 MBs diagnosed by MSCT were included in the 28 MBs diagnosed by CAG. Put CAG as the gold standard of myocardial bridge detecting, then MSCT's sensitivity was 92.86%. Conclusion MSCT coronary artery imaging can accurately show the anatomical relationship between coronary artery and myocardial and it is one of the preferred method of diagnosing coronary artery.
