    Coronary arteriography interpretation reliability varies. Inconsistent readings occurred in distal arteries, while proximal arteries showed higher agreement among physicians. Experience impacts diagnostic consistency.

    Area of Science:

    • Cardiovascular Imaging
    • Medical Diagnostics
    • Interventional Cardiology

    Background:

    • Coronary arteriography is a key diagnostic tool for coronary arterial occlusive disease.
    • Assessing the reliability of its interpretation is crucial for clinical decision-making.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the reliability of coronary arteriography interpretation.
    • To analyze inter- and intraobserver variability in reading cineangiograms.

    Main Methods:

    • A sub-study of the VA Cooperative Study.
    • Twenty-two physicians with varied experience interpreted 13 cineangiograms twice, in a blinded manner.

    Main Results:

    • Inconsistent readings were most frequent for distal left anterior descending and left circumflex arteries.

  • High agreement was observed for the right main coronary artery and ventricular aneurysms.
  • Individual reader consistency (intraobserver agreement) correlated with interobserver agreement and reported experience.

    • Conclusions:

    • The reliability of coronary arteriography interpretation is variable, particularly for distal segments.
    • Physician experience and individual reading consistency influence diagnostic agreement.
    • Standardization may be needed for improving interpretation reliability.
