Although the literature and data regarding the prognostic and diagnostic ability – as well as the wider applicability – of CT perfusion imaging is still being collected, produced and ...

Recent advances in scanner technology have made the use of CT stress myocardial perfusion imaging feasible. Just how well it matches up to MR perfusion in the diagnosis of coronary artery disease (CAD ...

MUNICH, Germany—A noninvasive strategy that integrates computed tomography (CT) angiography with CT myocardial perfusion imaging shows strong diagnostic accuracy in identifying patients who have flow ...

Dipyridamole-stress myocardial perfusion imaging with multidetector CT combined with CTA demonstrated improved diagnostic accuracy compared with individual myocardial perfusion images. Researchers ...

In stress testing using regadenoson, CT perfusion imaging resulted in a similar ability to detect or rule out myocardial ischemia, compared with the reference method, regadenoson stress testing ...

The combined protocol suggests that cardiac CT has a potential role in myocardial perfusion imaging for the detection of myocardial ischemia as well as providing information on coronary stenoses.

In this study, using CT perfusion and angiographic imaging to select patients for thrombolytic treatment of acute ischemic stroke, we found that tenecteplase was superior to alteplase with respect ...

Methods: Twenty-four patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma underwent perfusion CT before and 42 days after pemetrexed, cisplatin and bevacizumab treatment. RECIST measurements and calculations of ...

To detect in-stent restenosis among patients with coronary stents, a new study shows the potential for improved diagnostic accuracy by adding computed tomography perfusion imaging to coronary CT ...

Computed tomographic (CT) perfusion imaging shows higher overall diagnostic performance than single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) perfusion imaging for the diagnosis of coronary ...
