DESCRIZIONE

Cardiac computed tomography (CT) is gaining widespread acceptance as accurate non-invasive diagnostic tool for the diagnosis or rule-out of coronary artery disease and for the follow-up of previous coronary revascularizations. The recent introduction of a method enabling to add a fnctional assessment of coronary stenosis by CT (CT perfusion and FFRCT), allows to propose the method for the planning of interventional and surgical procedures. This book aims to offer the cardiologist, radiologist and specialists in nuclear cardiology, internal medicine, sport medicine and cardiac surgery a guide to know the technical principles, the main clinical applications and the role of cardiac CT among the current Guidelines in the management of ischemic and other cardiac disease.
