Resumen

Las reconstrucciones virtuales sin contraste (VNC) en tomografía computarizada de detector de recuento de fotones (PCD-CT) muestran una alta reproducibilidad para la evaluación de la calcificación de la válvula aórtica (AVC). Este método VNC ofrece una alternativa fiable a la TC verdadera sin contraste (TNC) para la evaluación de la AVC con una excelente precisión diagnóstica.

Conclusiones:

Las reconstrucciones virtuales sin contraste (VNC) a intervalos de 3.0 mm y 1.5 mm utilizando PCD-CT proporcionan una puntuación de calcio de la válvula aórtica (AVCS) altamente reproducible.
La VNC sirve como una alternativa fiable a la TC TNC tradicional para la evaluación de la AVC, demostrando una excelente precisión diagnóstica.
Los hallazgos respaldan la utilidad clínica de la VNC en los protocolos de imagen cardiovascular.

Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System VI: Calcium -Scoring CT

Calcium-Scoring CT ScanA calcium-scoring CT scan, also known as coronary artery calcium (CAC) scan, detects calcium deposits in the coronary arteries. This test assesses the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD), which can lead to cardiovascular events such as angina, heart failure, and sudden cardiac arrest.A calcium-scoring CT scan is generally recommended for individuals at intermediate risk of CAD without symptoms. It includes:Men aged 40-75 and women aged 50-75: Especially those with a...

Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System V: CT

Cardiac computed tomography (CT) scanning is an advanced cardiac imaging technique that utilizes CT technology, with or without intravenous (IV) contrast, to produce accurate cross-sectional virtual slices of specific areas of the heart, coronary circulation, and major blood vessels such as the aorta, pulmonary veins, and arteries. The computer processes these slices to generate three-dimensional images. Multidetector CT (MDCT) is a rapid form of CT scanning that captures multiple slices...

Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System III: X-Ray

The most common cardiovascular diagnostic test is an X-ray. It produces images of the heart, blood vessels, and adjacent structures.
Definition and Purpose
An X-ray, or radiograph, is a non-invasive method that uses ionizing radiation to take images of internal structures. It is mainly used in cardiac imaging to examine the heart, lungs, and major blood vessels, aiming to identify abnormalities in the heart's size, shape, and position, such as heart failure, congenital defects, and vascular...

Computed Tomography

Computed Tomography

Tomography refers to imaging by sections. Computed tomography (CT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses computers to analyze several cross-sectional X-rays to reveal minute details about structures in the body.
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...
