EXPERIENCE OF USE MULTIDETECTOR-ROW COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY TO EVALUATE THE STATUS OF CORONARY ARTERIES

Abstract

The aim of this article was to show possibilities, range of application and the diagnostic sensitivity 64-slice computed tomography (CT) of coronary artery in daily work of trasplantology clinic. CT coronary angiography was performed in 283 patients (190 men and 93 women; mean age 55,6 years). In 37 patients of this group CT coronary angiography was performed before any type of operation. Invasive coronary angiography performed in 45 patients after CT, has shown high diagnostic sensitivity of this technique.
