No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The objective of this study is to compare radiation dose of a standard spiral scan with the a new sequential scan protocol. We hypothesize that the sequential scan protocol is associated with a reduction in dose estimates of at least 20%, while the diagnostic image quality is not inferior.

Secondary endpoints of the study include quantitative image quality parameters, diagnostic accuracy for spiral versus sequential studies compared to invasive angiography in patients who underwent subsequent invasive coronary angiography.
