The Absence of Coronary Calcification Does Not Exclude Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease or the Need for Revascularization in Patients Referred for Conventional Coronary Angiography
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2010)
Objectives This study was designed to evaluate whether the absence of coronary calcium could rule out >= 50% coronary stenosis or the need for revascularization. Background The latest American Heart Association guidelines ...
Primary angioplasty for acute myocardial infarction with an anomalous origin of right coronary artery. Report of one case Angioplastía primaria en infarto agudo al miocardio en arteria coronaria derecha con origen anómalo. Caso clínico
(2012)
Anomalous origin of coronary arteries is a rare anatomical defect and its association with acute myocardial infarction is unusual. We report a 58-year-old male with ST-Segment elevation. Myocardial infarction of the inferior ...
Frequency of coronary artery disease in patients with renal artery stenosis without clinical manifestations of coronary insufficiency
(Elsevier B.V., 2006-11-01)
Atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis (RAS) and coronary artery disease (CAD) arise from the same multiple risk factors. The purpose of this study was to assess the frequency of previously undiagnosed CAD in patients with ...
Quantitative coronary arterial stenosis assessment by multidetector CT and invasive coronary angiography for identifying patients with myocardial perfusion abnormalities
(SPRINGERNEW YORK, 2012)
Semi-quantitative stenosis assessment by coronary CT angiography only modestly predicts stress-induced myocardial perfusion abnormalities. The performance of quantitative CT angiography (QCTA) for identifying patients with ...
Frequency and clinical predictors of coronary artery disease in chronic renal failure renal transplant candidates
(Informa Healthcare, 2015-05-01)
Background/aims: Cardiovascular diseases are major causes of mortality in chronic renal failure patients before and after renal transplantation. Among them, coronary disease presents a particular risk; however, risk ...
Intervenciones coronarias percutáneas guiadas con medición de flujo de reserva coronario

Diagnostic Performance of Combined Noninvasive Coronary Angiography and Myocardial Perfusion Imaging Using 320-MDCT: The CT Angiography and Perfusion Methods of the CORE320 Multicenter Multinational Diagnostic Study
(AMER ROENTGEN RAY SOC, 2011)
OBJECTIVE. Coronary MDCT angiography has been shown to be an accurate noninvasive tool for the diagnosis of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). Its sensitivity and negative predictive value for diagnosing percentage ...
