Zusammenfassung:Background Recently introduced selective catheter-directed intracoronary contrast injected coronary computed tomography angiography (Selective-CCTA) which is combined system incorporating invasive coronary angiography (ICA) and a 320-detector row CCTA enables the CT scan to be performed during coronary artery catheterization; and quantitative computed tomography coronary atherosclerotic plaque analysis (QCT) has been proposed as a reliable tool for quantitative coronary plaque analysis.
