Long term follow-up of coronary CT angiography (CCTA) is scarce. The aim of the present study was to assess the prognostic value of CCTA over a follow-up period of more than 6 years. 218 Patients were included undergoing 64-slice CCTA. Images were analysed with regard to the presence of nonobstructive (<50 %) or obstructive (50 % stenosis) coronary artery disease (CAD). Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) were defined as death, nonfatal myocardial infarction or urgent coronary revascularization. CCTA revealed normal coronaries in 49, nonobstructive lesions in 94, and obstructive CAD in 75 patients. During a median follow-up period of 6.9 years, MACE occurred in 45 patients (21 %). Annual MACE rates were 0.3, 2.7, and 6.0 % (p = 0.001), for patients with normal CCTA, nonobstructive, and obstructive CAD, respectively. Multivariate Cox regression analysis identified the number of segments with plaques [hazard ratio (HR) 1.18, p = 0.002] as well as the presence of obstructive lesions (HR 2.28, p = 0.036) as independent predictors of MACE. The present study extends the predictive value of CCTA over more than 6 years. Patients with normal coronary arteries of CCTA continue to have an excellent cardiac prognosis, while outcome is progressively worse in patients with nonobstructive and obstructive CAD.  相似文献

Our aim was to evaluate the plaque characteristics of coronary arteries related to significant stenosis with coronary CT angiography (CCTA) and to discuss the diagnostic accuracy of CCTA in patients with high calcium scores. After institutional review board approval, 110 patients (63 men; mean age: 67.1 ± 7.9 years) with Agatston scores >400 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients underwent Agatston calcium scoring and 64-slice CCTA, in addition to invasive coronary angiography (CAG). The composition (calcified, mixed, and non-calcified) and configuration (concentric, eccentric) of coronary artery plaques were analyzed on a per-segment basis by CCTA. We analyzed the differences in plaque composition and configuration between significant (≥ 50%) and non-significant (<50%) stenosis. Additionally, the diagnostic accuracy of stenosis according to plaque composition was evaluated by CCTA, using CAG as a reference method. Significant differences in plaque composition and configurations were observed between the two groups. In cases of significant stenosis, the proportions of concentric, mixed, and non-calcified plaques were significantly higher than those of eccentric and calcified plaques (P < 0.001). The sensitivity and positive predictive value of mixed (97.4, 87.6%) and non-calcified plaques (97.8, 95.7%) were significantly higher than those of calcified plaques (87.6, 67.2%). Although CCTA has limited value due to low diagnostic accuracy of calcified plaques, knowledge about the high frequencies of mixed and non-calcified plaques in significant stenosis help to make an accurate assessment of CAD with CCTA in patients with high calcium scores.  相似文献

Coronary CT angiography (CCTA) suffers from a reduced diagnostic accuracy in patients with heavily calcified coronary arteries or prior myocardial revascularisation due to artefacts caused by calcifications and stent material. CT myocardial perfusion imaging (CTMPI) yields high potential for the detection of myocardial ischemia and might help to overcome the above mentioned limitations. We analysed CT single-phase perfusion using high-pitch helical image acquisition technique in patients with prior myocardial revascularisation. Thirty-six patients with an indication for invasive coronary angiography (28 with coronary stents, 2 with coronary artery bypass grafts and 6 with both) were included in this prospective study at two study sites. All patients were examined on a 2nd generation dual-source CT system. Stress CT images were obtained using a prospectively ECG-triggered single-phase high-pitch helical image acquisition technique. During stress the tracer for myocardial perfusion (MP) SPECT imaging was administered. Rest CT images were acquired using prospectively ECG-triggered sequential CT. MP-SPECT imaging and invasive coronary angiography served as standard of reference. In this heavily diseased patient cohort CCTA alone showed a low overall diagnostic accuracy for detection of hemodynamically relevant coronary artery stenosis of only 31% on a per-patient base and 60% on a per-vessel base. Combining CCTA and CTMPI allowed for a significantly higher overall diagnostic accuracy of 78% on a per-patient base and 92% on a per-vessel base (p?<?0.001). Mean radiation dose for stress CT scans was 0.9 mSv, mean radiation dose for rest CT scans was 5.0 mSv. In symptomatic patients with known coronary artery disease and prior myocardial revascularization combining CCTA and CTMPI showed significantly higher diagnostic accuracy in detection of hemodynamically significant coronary artery stenosis when compared to CCTA alone.  相似文献

To assess the prognostic value of coronary artery stenosis identification by coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) for the prediction of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in a multicenter prospective cohort study. We performed a prospective multicenter observational cohort study of symptomatic patients with suspected or known coronary artery disease (CAD) (n = 172; 57% male) undergoing CCTA in accordance to ACC/AHA Appropriateness Criteria from 4 sites in and around Paris, France, and followed for a mean duration of 22.0 ± 4.5 months (interquartile range 18–26 months). Coronary arteries by CCTA were interpreted by physicians blinded to the patient characteristics for the presence or absence obstructive (≥70% luminal diameter stenosis), as well as for plaque composition categorized as non-calcified, calcified or “mixed.” MACE was defined as death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, unstable angina or target vessel revascularization. MACE event rates were compared between patients with or without obstructive plaque and with differing plaque compositions. MACE event rates were significantly higher in patients with obstructive coronary artery stenosis by CCTA compared to those without (61.1% vs. 3.9%, P < 0.01). In patients with obstructive stenosis, mixed (83.3% vs. 25.3%, P < 0.01) and calcified (94.4% vs. 50.7%, P < 0.01) plaque presence was significantly higher than in patients without obstructive stenosis, with no differences in prevalence of non-calcified plaque (27.8% vs. 20.8%, P = NS). For MACE, the negative predictive value of no observed coronary artery plaque was 100% in the follow-up period. In this prospective multicenter study of symptomatic patients with suspected or known CAD undergoing CCTAs interpreted by imagers blinded to patient characteristics, CCTA presence of plaque severity and composition successfully identifies patients at risk for incident MACE events. Importantly, a negative CCTA portends an extremely low risk for incidence MACE.  相似文献

Introduction

Coronary computed-tomography angiography (CCTA) has high diagnostic performance, but it sometimes does not allow evaluation because of artifacts. Currently, the use of a β-blocker is recommended to prevent motion artifacts, but the β-blocker (metoprolol, propranolol, etc.) commonly used has a slow onset and long duration of action. Landiolol hydrochloride is an intravenous β1-blocker with a very short half-life. We investigated the efficacy and optimal dose of this drug for reduction of heart rate in patients undergoing CCTA.

Methods

Eighty-seven subjects with ischemic heart disease were divided into three groups to receive landiolol hydrochloride at a dose of 0.125 (Group L), 0.25 (Group M), or 0.5 mg/kg (Group H). CCTA was performed at 3–7 min after administration, and heart rate, blood pressure, and image quality were assessed.

Results

Heart rate decreased rapidly after completion of landiolol hydrochloride administration in all groups, with a heart rate reduction of 15.55 ± 6.56% in Group L, 16.48 ± 7.80% in Group M, and 21.49 ± 6.13% in Group H (Group L vs Group H, P = 0.0008; Group M vs Group H, P = 0.0109). Since there was no significant difference in heart rate during imaging among the three groups, although there was a significant difference between groups L and H and groups M and H in terms of percent change in heart rate, coronary stenosis was diagnosable in all groups with no significant difference.

Conclusion

Landiolol hydrochloride showed a rapid onset and short β-blocking effect, and was most effective at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg. However, the diagnosable proportion had no significant differences among the three groups in CCTA. Therefore, the clinically recommended dose was 0.125 mg/kg or less, considering the heart rate of patients with suspected coronary stenosis during CCTA.  相似文献

The detection of hemodynamically significant stenosis is important because ischemia-guided revascularization improves overall patient outcomes. Fractional flow reserve (FFR), which is measured during invasive coronary angiography, is regarded as the gold standard for determining hemodynamically significant coronary stenosis. Although coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) has been widely used to exclude significant coronary artery disease in patients with low to intermediate pretest probability, anatomic assessment by CCTA using diameter stenosis ≥50 % does not correlate well with the functional assessment of FFR. To overcome the weaknesses of conventional CCTA, such as its low specificity and positive predictive value, especially in patients with a small-diameter artery, poor image quality, or high calcium score, more sophisticated CCTA analysis methods have been developed to detect hemodynamically significant coronary stenosis. Studies that use the quantification of coronary plaque, transluminal attenuation gradient (TAG), CT myocardial perfusion (CTP), and CT-derived FFR have been conducted to validate their diagnostic performances, though each method has its pros and cons. This review provides details on the quantification of coronary plaque, TAG, CTP, and CT-derived FFR, including a definition of each, how to gather and interpret data, and the strengths and limitations of each. Further, we provide an overview of recent clinical studies.  相似文献

Coronary CT angiography (CCTA) is emerging as a powerful tool for the diagnosis and characterization of coronary artery disease. In the emergency department (ED) setting, the high negative predictive value of CCTA has been shown to reduce the length of stay and the cost of care in the evaluation of patients at low and intermediate risk for an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). In addition, CCTA and triple-rule-out protocol CT examinations which simultaneously evaluate the coronary arteries, aorta and pulmonary arteries, have the potential to diagnose not only significant atherosclerotic coronary artery disease (CAD) and coronary artery anomalies, but noncoronary etiologies of chest pain, including pulmonary embolism, aortic dissection, infection, pleural and pericardial disease. Caution has been raised about the widespread use of CCTA in this setting, particularly given the prevalence of repeat ED visits for chest pain, due to the radiation exposure associated with retrospectively-gated CCTA. However, the recent development of prospectively-triggered coronary artery CTA makes the ED evaluation possible with a substantially lower radiation exposure to the patient. Although most studies of CCTA to date are performed with retrospective ECG gating, early reports on prospectively triggered CCTA demonstrate equivalent image quality and accuracy when compared to studies acquired with retrospective ECG gating.  相似文献

Since the introduction of 64-slice scanners, multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) has experienced a marked increase in adoption for the noninvasive assessment of coronary artery disease, although radiation dose concerns remain. The recent introduction of prospective coronary CT angiography (CCTA) has begun to address these concerns; however, its applicability with existing scanners remains limited to cohorts defined by heart rate, heart rate variability, and body mass index. This paper reviews prospective CCTA, the effect of heart rate and heart rate variability on image quality, and the physiologic basis for selection of optimal prospective imaging windows. We then discuss 256-slice technology and our first 4 months of clinical experience with 256-slice prospective CCTA. Our early clinical results indicate that high-quality, low-dose prospective coronary CTA may be applied to patients with higher heart rates, higher BMI, and with less sensitivity to heart rate variability using 256-slice MDCT.  相似文献

In recent years, coronary CT angiography (CCTA) has emerged has a noninvasive anatomic imaging modality that demonstrates high diagnostic performance to detect and exclude high-grade coronary artery stenosis. Proponents of CCTA have advocated its use as an effective alternative to functional stress imaging, while critics have maintained that the benefits of CCTA use remain unproven and may promote unnecessary “layering” of imaging studies on top of conventional stress testing. In this review, we consider the clinical and economic data related to CCTA to date, and suggest future studies that may clarify the role of CCTA in daily clinical evaluation of patients with suspected or known coronary artery disease.  相似文献

Coronary plaque progression is a multi-faceted process influenced by cardiovascular risk factors, as well as the presence, extent, stenosis, morphology, and vulnerability of plaque, which may ultimately result in myocardial infarction or death. Traditionally, intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) has been the primary modality to study atherosclerosis progression. However, it is invasive and impractical for screening or monitoring. While coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring has been widely studied as a non-invasive method to measure plaque progression, it is limited to visualization of stenosis and non-calcified plaque. Coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) allows for visualization of the severity of stenosis, plaque burden, plaque morphology, and ability to differentiate between plaque types. Furthermore, certain CCTA plaque features are useful in identifying vulnerable plaque including low attenuation plaque, positive remodeling, spotty calcification, and napkin-ring sign. This review covers multiple aspects of plaque progression—its pathophysiology, clinical implications, and use of novel non-invasive technology for the assessment of plaque progression over time.  相似文献
