Prognostic value of computed tomography coronary angiography in patients with suspected coronary artery disease: a 24-month follow-up study

The aim of this study was to determine the predictive value of 64-slice computed tomography coronary angiography (CTCA) for major cardiac events in patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD). A total of 187 consecutive patients (119 men, age 62.5 ± 10.5 years) without known heart disease underwent single-source 64-slice CTCA (Somatom Sensation 64, Siemens) for clinical suspicion of CAD. Patients underwent follow-up for the occurrence of cardiac death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, unstable angina and cardiac revascularization. In total, 2,822 coronary segments were assessed. Forty-two segments (1.5%) were not assessable because of insufficient image quality. Overall, CTCA revealed absence of CAD in 65 (34.7%) patients, nonobstructive CAD (coronary plaque ≤50%) in 87 (46.5%) patients and obstructive CAD (>50%) in 35 (18.8%) patients. A total of 20 major cardiac events (3 myocardial infarctions, 16 cardiac revascularizations, 1 unstable angina) occurred during a mean follow-up of 24 months. One noncardiac death occurred. Seventeen events occurred in the group of patients with obstructive CAD and three events occurred in the group of nonobstructive CAD. The event rate was 0% among patients with normal coronary arteries at CTCA. CTCA has a 100% negative predictive value for major cardiac events at 24-month follow-up in patients with normal coronary arteries.     

Assessing the value of coronary artery computed tomography as the first-line anatomical test for stable patients with indications for invasive angiography due to suspected coronary artery disease. Initial cost analysis in the CAT-CAD randomized trial

BackgroundClinical and safety outcomes of the strategy employing coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) as the first-choice imaging test have recently been demonstrated in the recently published CAT-CAD randomized, prospective, single-center study. Based on prospectively collected data in this patient population, we aimed to perform an initial cost analysis of this approach.Methods120 participants of the CAT-CAD trial (age:60.6 ± 7.9 years, 35% female) were included in the analysis. We analyzed medical resource use during the diagnostic and therapeutic episode of care. We prospectively estimated the cumulative cost for each strategy by multiplying the number of resources by standardized costs in accordance to medical databases and the 2015 Procedural Reimbursement Payment Guide.ResultsThe total cost of coronary artery disease (CAD) diagnosis was significantly lower in the CCTA group as compared to the direct invasive coronary angiography (ICA) group ($50,176 vs $137,032) with corresponding per-patient cost of $836 vs $2,284, respectively. Similarly, the entire diagnostic and therapeutic episode of care was significantly less expensive in the CCTA group ($227,622 vs $502,827) with corresponding per-patient cost of $4630 vs $8,380, respectively. Overall, the application of CCTA as a first-line diagnostic test in stable patients with indications to ICA resulted in a 63% reduction of CAD diagnosis costs and a 55% reduction composite of diagnosis and treatment costs during 90-days follow-up.ConclusionsApplication of CCTA as the first-line anatomic test in patients with suspected significant CAD decreased the total costs of diagnosis. This is likely attributable to reduced numbers of invasive tests and hospitalisations. Initial cost analysis of the CAT-CAD randomized trial suggests that this approach may provide significant cost savings for the entire health system.     

Sixty-four-slice computed tomography coronary angiography compared with myocardial perfusion scintigraphy for the diagnosis of functionally significant coronary stenoses in patients with a low to intermediate likelihood of coronary artery disease

Background. Multislice computed tomography coronary angiography (CTA) was proposed as a method for investigating possible coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients who present with chest pain but with a low to intermediate likelihood of CAD. Sixty-four-channel CTA was compared prospectively with ^99mTc-tetrofosmin myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS) (as the gold standard in the detection of flow-limiting stenoses) for the detection of functionally significant CAD. Methods and Results. Fifty-two consecutive symptomatic patients with a low to intermediate likelihood of coronary artery disease, and who were referred for MPS, also underwent CTA. The CTA datasets were analyzed by two experienced observers who were blinded to the MPS data, and coronary artery segments were reported as <50%, 50% to 69%, 70% to 99% stenoses, or occluded. The MPS images were similarly analyzed for inducible perfusion abnormalities, and coronary territories were identified. At the patient level, agreement between CTA and MPS for CTA lesions at ≥50% was 87% (sensitivity, 100%; specificity, 84%; positive predictive value, 50%; negative predictive value, 100%). For CTA lesions, agreement at ≥70% was 96% (sensitivity, 86%; specificity, 98%; positive predictive value, 86%; negative predictive value, 98%). Conclusions. In patients with a low to intermediate likelihood of CAD, there is good correlation between MPS and CTA for the detection of functionally significant coronary artery stenoses when CTA detects a narrowing of ≥70% severity. Computed tomography coronary angiography stenoses of 70% should be used to determine functional significance, and not 50%, as is the usual practice at present.

冠状动脉CT血管成像和运动平板试验对冠心病患者的诊断比较

目的:评价冠状动脉CT血管成像(CCTA)和运动平板试验(TET)对冠心病的诊断价值。方法:以常规冠状动脉造影(CAG)为诊断冠心病(冠脉狭窄≥50%)的"金标准",对同期先后行TET、CCTA和CAG 3种检查的75例疑似冠心病患者进行回顾性分析,将其TET和CCTA的结果与CAG进行比较。结果:TET和CCTA诊断冠心病的敏感度分别为45.2%和90.5%,特异度为69.7%和93.9%,阳性预测值为65.5%和95.0%,阴性预测值为50.0%和88.6%,准确率为56.0%和92.0%,P<0.01。在冠状动脉血管水平CCTA对右冠状动脉、左主干、前降支、回旋支狭窄诊断的准确率分别为86.7%、100.0%、88.0%和76.0%。冠心病患者中TET诊断阳性率与病变血管支数呈正相关(r=0.440,P=0.004);冠心病患者TET诊断结果阳性与阴性仅与血管狭窄程度≥75%狭窄的节段数目有统计学差异(P=0.016)。结论:CCTA诊断冠心病较TET有更高的诊断准确性和较低的诊断假阳性和假阴性,对有症状的疑诊冠心病患者CCTA的诊断具有更重要作用。     

Hybrid cardiac imaging: Insights in the dilemma of the appropriate clinical management of patients with suspected coronary artery disease

Aim

To evaluate the potential of SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI)–computed tomography coronary angiography (CTCA) hybrid fusion imaging to improve the diagnostic performance of cardiac SPECT/MPI and CTCA alone in order to act as more accurate gate keeper to further investigation invasive or not.

Methods and results

Twenty-five patients were subjected to SPECT/MPI and CTCA within a period of 1 month without any medical treatment modification. A fusion software package was used for cardiac SPECT–CTCA image fusion. Semiquantitative analysis was performed for cardiac SPECT, CTCA and SPECT/MPI–CTCA fusion images. Patients were classified in 2 groups according to the clinical decision for further investigation (group A), or not (group B). Statistically significant differences were observed when SPECT/MPI–CTCA fusion images were used instead of cardiac SPECT alone (p < 0.05). No statistically significant differences were observed comparing CTCA alone to SPECT/MPI–CTCA fusion images (p = 0.25). A mid-term follow-up (mean 3.58 ± 0.24 years) showed that all patients classified in group A based on the interpretation of SPECT MPI–CTCA fused images underwent conventional coronary angiography with further necessity for PTCA or CABG whereas absence of major or minor cardiac events was revealed for all patients of group B.

Conclusion

In patients suspected for coronary artery disease, cardiac SPECT/MPI–CTCA fusion imaging was found to considerably alter the clinical decision for referral to further investigation derived from SPECT/MPI.     

Relationship between CT coronary angiography and stress perfusion imaging in patients with suspected ischemic heart disease assessed by integrated PET-CT imaging

Background Although computed tomography (CT) coronary angiography (CTA) provides detailed assessments of the anatomic extent of coronary artery disease (CAD), its value for predicting myocardial ischemia is unclear. We examined the value of CTA to identify the presence of ischemia, as determined by stress perfusion imaging, using integrated positron emission tomography (PET)-CT imaging. Methods and Results We studied 110 consecutive patients (median age, 57 years; 55% male) with suspected CAD undergoing stress rubidium 82 myocardial perfusion PET imaging and CTA in the same setting. Increasing degrees of CTA-detected luminal narrowing (<50%, 50%–70%, and >70%) were associated with reduced sensitivity with commensurate improvements in specificity for identifying myocardial ischemia both on a per-vessel basis and on a per-patient basis. Consequently, with increasing degrees of CTA-detected stenosis severity, the positive predictive value increased (14%, 26%, and 53%, respectively, on a per-vessel basis [P<.001] and 29%, 44%, and 77%, respectively, on a per-patient basis [P=.005]), whereas the negative predictive value was unchanged (97%, 97%, and 96%, respectively, on a per-vessel basis [P=not significant (NS)] and 92%, 91%, and 88%, respectively, on a per-patient basis [P=NS]). Receiver operating characteristic analysis revealed no differences between these 3 anatomic criteria (receiver operating characteristic areas of 0.66±0., 0.73±0.06, and 0.71±0., respectively [P=NS]) for identifying ischemia. Nearly half of significant angiographic stenoses (47%) occurred without evidence of myocardial ischemia, whereas 50% of normal PET studies were associated with some CTA abnormality. Conclusions Despite an excellent negative predictive value, CTA is a poor discriminator of patients with myocardial ischemia. Conversely, a normal stress PET study is a poor discriminator of patients without evidence of non—flow-limiting (subclinical) coronary atherosclerosis. These results suggest potentially complementary roles of CT and perfusion imaging in the evaluation of patients with suspected CAD.     

Diagnostic performance of computed tomography digital subtraction angiography of the lower extremities during haemodialysis in patients with suspected peripheral artery disease

IntroductionWith intra-arterial digital subtraction angiography (DSA) considered as the gold standard, we compared the diagnostic value of computed tomography angiography (CTA) and computed tomography-digital subtraction angiography (CT-DSA in hemodialysis (HD) patients suspected of having lower limb peripheral artery disease (PAD).MethodsIn this retrospective study, we enrolled 220 HD patients with suspected PAD. CT-DSA images were obtained by subtracting unenhanced images from enhanced images. The research team calculated the area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive value (PPV, NPV), and recorded the diagnostic accuracy between the CTA and CT-DSA images using the DSA as gold standard. Visual evaluation of calcifications in the peripheral arteries were also compared between CTA and CT-DSA images.ResultsAt the above-knee level, the CTA AUC [95% confidence interval (CI)] was 0.68 (CI 0.64–0.72), sensitivity and specificity were 60 and 81%, PPV and NPV were 85 and 53%, and accuracy was 67%. Below the knee, these values were 0.66 (CI 0.62–0.70), 71 and 79%, 79 and 47%, and 66%. For CT-DSA, above-knee, the AUC [95% CI] was 0.88 (CI 0.85–0.91), sensitivity and specificity were 84 and 92%, PPV and NPV were 89 and 97%, and accuracy was 93%. Below the knee, these values were 0.95 (CI 0.93–0.97), 95 and 93%, 96 and 83%, and 93%. The scores for the visualization of calcification in the peripheral arteries was significantly higher for CT-DSA than CTA (p < 0.05).ConclusionsCT-DSA helps to assess stenotic PAD with high calcification in the lower extremities of HD patients.Implications for practiceOn CT-DSA images, the severity of vascular calcification can be assessed for HD patients suspected of PAD of the lower extremities.     

Coronary artery bypass graft imaging using ECG-gated multislice computed tomography: comparison with catheter angiography

AIM: To compare the value of multislice computerized tomography (MSCT) in imaging coronary artery bypass grafts (CABGs) by direct quantitative comparison with standard invasive angiography. METHODS: Using MSCT, 50 consecutive patients who had previously undergone CABG surgery and had recently undergone invasive angiography for recurrent angina pectoris, were studied further using MSCT after intravenous injection of non-ionic contrast agent; cardiac imaging was performed during a single breath-hold. Graft anatomy was quantified, using both quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) and MSCT, by different investigators blinded to each other. Reproducibility was quantified using the standard error of the measurement expressed as a percentage in log-transformed values (CV%) and intraclass correlation (ICC). RESULTS: All 150 grafts were imaged using MSCT; only 4 patent grafts were not imaged using selective angiography. Good agreement was achieved between MSCT and QCA on assessment of proximal anastomoses (CV% 25.2, ICC 0.84), mid-vessel luminal diameter (CV% 15.5, ICC 0.91) and aneurysmal dilations (CV% 14.3). Reasonable agreement was reached on assessment of distal anastomoses (CV% 26.7, ICC 0.66) and categorization of distal run-off (ICC 0.73). Good agreement was observed for stenoses of over 50% luminal loss (CV% 8.7, ICC 0.97) but agreement on assessment of less severe lesions was poor (CV% 208.7, ICC 0.51). CONCLUSION: This study demonstrates that CABGs can be quantitatively evaluated using MSCT, and that significant lesions present in all CABG segments can be reliably identified. Agreement between MSCT and QCA for lesions of less than 50% luminal loss was poor.     

Coronary manifestations of Kawasaki Disease in computed tomography coronary angiography

Coronary arteritis in Kawasaki disease can lead to serious complications such myocardial infarction and sudden death. The identification of coronary manifestations with a method that is minimally invasive and of low radiation exposure is therefore important in paediatric patients with Kawasaki disease. Coronary CT angiography can be an attractive alternative to invasive coronary angiography. This paper describes imaging techniques for coronary CT angiography in pediatric patients and demonstrates the spectrum of cardiovascular manifestations in patients with Kawasaki disease.     

Volumetric coronary angiography using the 256-detector row computed tomography scanner: comparison in vivo and in vitro with porcine models

Purpose: To investigate the feasibility of volumetric cine imaging in human cardiac studies by comparing in vivo and in vitro coronary angiography using a 256-detector row computed tomography (CT) without ECG gating.

Material and Methods: The left and right coronary arteries of two domestic pigs were scanned in vivo and in vitro in cine mode using the 256-detector row CT. The device scanned approximately 100 mm in the cranio-caudal direction with one rotation, with a slice thickness of 0.5 mm.

Results: The coronary arteries could be observed to the third-degree branches in vitro, but could be visualized clearly only to the proximal portion (first-degree or second-degree branches) in vivo.

Conclusion: Application of cardiac volumetric cine imaging with 256-detector row CT may be a promising means of obtaining diagnostic information and has potential for adoption to human studies.     

Carotid computed tomography angiography after cobalt-based alloy carotid artery stenting using ultra-high-resolution computed tomography with model-based iterative reconstruction

In conventional carotid computed tomographic angiography, the artifacts of the stent vary depending on the structure and characteristics of the alloy type. Cobalt-based alloy stents have been reported to exhibit high artifacts, and accurate evaluation of the internal lumen can be difficult. Recently, ultra-high-resolution computed tomography scanner systems have become available for clinical practice. The primary features of this computed tomography scanner are a 0.25-mm detector row width and a 1024 × 1024 matrix. We report a case-series of carotid artery stenting using a cobalt-based alloy stent scanned by an ultra-high-resolution computed tomography scanner system and model-based iterative reconstruction. We also report that the combination of the ultra-high-resolution computed tomography scanner system with model-based iterative reconstruction would be useful to evaluate vessel patency after placement of a cobalt-based alloy stent.     

Imaging coronary and extracoronary atherosclerosis: feasibility and impact of whole-body computed tomography angiography

A comprehensive whole-body approach to noninvasive evaluation of coronary and extracoronary vasculature is currently not available. The objective of our study was to assess the potential of 64-slice computed tomography angiography (64-CTA) for whole-body evaluation of atherosclerosis burden. Seventy-eight patients referred for coronary imaging underwent whole-body 64-CTA using an adjusted strategy for the administration of contrast medium with dose-saving algorithms involving ECG modulation and reduced tube voltage. Arterial segments (15 coronary, 32 systemic) were evaluated for significant (≥50%) steno-occlusive disease while arterovenous density was evaluated at seven extracoronary locations. Homogeneous attenuation (mean 321 ± 20 HU) was obtained throughout the systemic vasculature. Atherosclerosis was observed in 238/995 (24%) coronary and 368/2441 (15%) systemic segments. Significant stenoses/occlusions were present in 214 (21%)/24 (2.5%) coronary segments while asymptomatic clinically relevant stenoses were present in 49 systemic segments. Sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values of coronary 64-CTA among 52 patients who also underwent quantitative coronary angiography were 92%, 95%, 81% and 98%, respectively. ECG modulation decreased radiation exposure to 14.1–15.4 mSv per patient. Comprehensive, noninvasive assessment of atherosclerosis can be performed by whole-body 64-CTA and may have a positive impact on secondary prevention.

Applications of multislice computed tomography in coronary artery disease

Multislice computed tomography (MSCT) provides high accuracy for noninvasive assessment of coronary artery disease (CAD). The introduction of the latest computed tomography (CT) technology allows comprehensive evaluation of various aspects of CAD, including the coronary calcium score, coronary artery stenoses, bypass patency, and myocardial function. Other applications, such as plaque characterization, first-pass perfusion imaging, and viability imaging using delayed contrast enhancement, are still under development and may demonstrate clinical utility in the future. Further improvements in CT hardware and imaging protocols are expected that may result in improved coronary artery imaging, new applications, and a significant reduction of radiation dose.     

Diagnostic accuracy of in-stent coronary restenosis detection with multislice spiral computed tomography: a meta-analysis

This study was designed to define the current role of multislice spiral computed tomography (MSCT) for the diagnosis of coronary in-stent restenosis using a meta-analytic process. Restenosis remains a limitation after coronary stent implantation and contributes to a substantial number of coronary re-assessments by conventional invasive coronary angiography (CA). We identified 15 studies (807 patients) evaluating in-stent restenosis by means of both MSCT (≥16 slices) and conventional CA until February 2007. After data extraction the analysis was performed according to a random-effects model. The analysis pooled the results from 15 studies with a total of 1,175 stents. A substantial number of unassessable stents (13%) were excluded from the analysis underscoring the shortcomings of MSCT. With this major limitation the diagnostic performance of MSCT for in-stent restenosis detection can be summarized as follows: the sensitivity and specificity were 84% [95% confidence interval (CI) 77–89%] and 91% (95% CI 89–93%), respectively, with positive and negative likelihood ratios of 12.2 (95% CI 6.6–22.6) and 0.23 (95% CI 0.17–0.31), respectively, and with a diagnostic odds ratio of 67.9 (95% CI 34.4–134.1). MSCT has shortcomings difficult to overcome in daily practice for in-stent restenosis detection and continues to have moderately high sensitivity and specificity. The diagnostic role of this emerging technology as an alternative to CA for in-stent restenosis detection remains limited.     

In vitro coronary artery imaging with sixteen-slice helical computed tomography

Purpose: To determine the benefits of submillimeter coronary computed tomography (CT) angiography in vitro.

Material and Methods: The coronary arteries of three domestic pigs were filled with contrast agent and depicted with clinically applicable CT angiography protocols with a slice thickness of 0.63 to 2.5 mm.

Results: With 2.5 mm slices, only the third-degree coronary artery branches could be discerned. With 1.25 mm slices, some fourth-degree branches of the right coronary artery could be discerned upon maximum intensity projections. With 0.63 mm slices, fourth-degree coronary artery branches could be discerned in all locations.

Conclusion: The introduction of 16-row detector CT with submillimeter z-axis resolution translates into an order-of-magnitude benefit for the depiction of coronary artery branches.     

Coronary dual source multi detector computed tomography in patients suspected of coronary artery disease: Prevalence of incidental extra-cardiac findings

Objectives

(1) To establish the prevalence of incidental extra-cardiac findings (ECFs) in coronary multi detector computed tomography (CCT) performed in a large, homogeneous cohort of patients suspected of coronary artery disease (CAD). (2) To examine whether any association can be established between ECFs and pretest risk as determined by conventional risk factors for CAD, the Diamond-Forrester risk model or coronary artery calcium scores. (3) To assess cost related to extra-cardiac examinations.

Design

Retrospective study of consecutive patients who had CCT performed. A large field of view was recreated from the non-enhanced CT scan and evaluated by a radiologist for incidental ECFs.

Subjects

Patients with chest pain referred to CTA by a cardiologist.

Results

In 1383 patients a total of 481 ECFs were indentified, 378 minor (meaning no follow-up was needed) and 103 major ECFs (ECF followed up clinically and/or with additional imaging), in a total of 393 (28%) patients. 85 (6%) patients had one major ECF and 9 (0.7%) patients had two major ECFs. In 19 (4 cases of malignancy) patients the major ECF had therapeutic consequences. Significant positive associations were found between age and smoking, respectively and the presence of ECFs. The cost estimate of saving one life from malignant disease based on ECF examinations is 40,190€.

Conclusion

Incidental extra-cardiac findings are common, sometimes revealing serious, even malignant disease. Diagnostic follow-up of major ECFs seems to be cost-effective in a Danish clinical setting. We recommend investigating a large field of view for incidental ECFs following CCT.     

Comparison of multislice computed tomography with intravascular ultrasound for detection and characterization of coronary artery plaques: a systematic review

Purpose

Multislice computed tomography (MSCT) is a novel non-invasive test for detection and analysis of coronary artery plaques. A systematic review was conducted of the literature to compare MSCT with IVUS as the reference standard for assessing coronary artery plaques.

Materials and methods

We performed a literature search in the online database MEDLINE, which was accessed at http://www.pubmed.gov on 9th April 2008.

Results

The search identified 14 studies with 340 patients (mean age 59 ± 5 years). The systematic review revealed a sensitivity of MSCT on the lesion level (n = 1779 coronary plaques) on the order of 90% (range from 87 to 92%) in comparison to IVUS. Per-segment analysis (n = 356) yielded a lower sensitivity of 81-86%. In the per-vessel analysis (n = 90), MSCT had a better sensitivity and specificity for the RCA (83-89% and 92-100%) and the LAD (83-87% and 93%) than for the LCX (71-85% and 77-89%), and on the vessel level and the cross-section analysis MSCT was more sensitive for calcified plaques than for non-calcified plaque. It is noteworthy that most studies provide only incomplete data on technical and methodological parameters such as radiation exposure and patient characteristics.

Conclusion

MSCT is an accurate and reliable test for detection of coronary artery plaques in comparison to IVUS with limitations in regards to the LCX and non-calcified plaques. Studies published thus far are limited by the sample sizes and methodological quality issues.
