Zusammenfassung: | Background
Multidetector computed tomography angiography (MDCT) is a non-invasive examination for coronary artery disease. Coronary artery disease reporting and data system (CAD-RADS) is a structured reporting system that successfully facilitated communication with clinicians. Our study aimed to assess the accuracy as well as the agreement of the CAD-RADS system with the conventional angiography results.
Results
48 patients were enrolled in this prospective study, all patients underwent MDCT coronary angiography and conventional coronary artery angiography. An excellent inter method agreement between coronary CT angiography (CCTA) and conventional coronary angiography was noted for the left main trunk (LMT) with
