Abstract: | OBJECTIVE: Diagnostic and therapeutic strategies in electrophysiology and interventional cardiology include the coronary venous system. The purpose of this study was to compare MDCT angiography with conventional coronary sinus angiography in terms of detailed anatomic display of the coronary veins. CONCLUSION: MDCT angiography is a reliable alternative to conventional coronary sinus angiography for detailed anatomic display of the coronary veins. |
