Journal ArticleDOI
Diagnostic and Prognostic Value of Absence of Coronary Artery Calcification
Ammar Sarwar,Leslee J. Shaw,Michael D. Shapiro,Ron Blankstein,Udo Hoffman,Ricardo C. Cury,Suhny Abbara,Thomas J. Brady,Matthew J. Budoff,Roger S. Blumenthal,Khurram Nasir,Khurram Nasir,Khurram Nasir +12 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that the absence of CAC is associated with a very low risk of future cardiovascular events, with modest incremental value of other diagnostic tests in this very low-risk group.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adenosine-induced stress myocardial perfusion imaging using dual-source cardiac computed tomography.
Ron Blankstein,Ron Blankstein,Leon Shturman,Ian S. Rogers,Jose A. Rocha-Filho,David R. Okada,Ammar Sarwar,Anand Soni,Hiram G. Bezerra,Hiram G. Bezerra,Brian B. Ghoshhajra,Milena Petranovic,Ricardo Loureiro,Gudrun Feuchtner,Gudrun Feuchtner,Henry Gewirtz,Udo Hoffmann,Wilfred Mamuya,Thomas J. Brady,Ricardo C. Cury +19 more
TL;DR: Adenosine stress CT can identify stress-induced myocardial perfusion defects with diagnostic accuracy comparable to SPECT, with similar radiation dose and with the advantage of providing information on coronary stenosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Incremental Value of Adenosine-induced Stress Myocardial Perfusion Imaging with Dual-Source CT at Cardiac CT Angiography
Jose A. Rocha-Filho,Ron Blankstein,Leonid D. Shturman,Hiram G. Bezerra,David R. Okada,Ian S. Rogers,Brian B. Ghoshhajra,Udo Hoffmann,Gudrun Feuchtner,Wilfred Mamuya,Thomas J. Brady,Ricardo C. Cury +11 more
TL;DR: A combination protocol involving adenosine perfusion CT imaging and cardiac CT Angiography in a dual-source technique is feasible, and CT perfusion adds incremental value to cardiac CT angiographic in the detection of significant CAD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stress Myocardial CT Perfusion: An Update and Future Perspective
Tust Techasith,Ricardo C. Cury +1 more
TL;DR: It has been illustrated that a combined CTA/CTP protocol improves the diagnostic accuracy to detect hemodynamic significant stenosis as compared with CTA alone; this combined protocol can also be accomplished at a radiation dose comparable to nuclear myocardial perfusion imaging exams.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct comparison of rest and adenosine stress myocardial perfusion CT with rest and stress SPECT.
David R. Okada,Brian B. Ghoshhajra,Ron Blankstein,Ron Blankstein,Jose A. Rocha-Filho,Leonid D. Shturman,Ian S. Rogers,Hiram G. Bezerra,Ammar Sarwar,Ammar Sarwar,Henry Gewirtz,Udo Hoffmann,Wilfred Mamuya,Thomas J. Brady,Ricardo C. Cury +14 more
TL;DR: In this article, the level of agreement between adenosine-mediated stress imaging (CTP) and SPECT-MPI at rest and under stress on a per-segment, per-vessel, and per-patient basis was determined.
