No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of a new motion correction algorithm on image quality and diagnostic utility in unselected patients undergoing coronary cardiac computed tomography, and to investigate if this motion correction algorithm can compensate for the usual use of intravenously medication (beta-blockers) before the scan.

Conditions

  • Heart Diseases

Interventions

OTHER

non-seloken

regarding the guidelines patients receive seloken before the cardiac CT scan to lower the heart rate during the scan. The intervention in this study is to avoid the medication with seloken before the scan, and to investigate if the use of a new motion correction scan algorithm can compensate for the absence of the seloken.
