Risks were nontrivial, and in a worst-case scenario approached 1% cancer risk from a single CTCA scan. Thankfully, the vast majority of patients who currently undergo 64-slice CTCA have risks ...

A noninvasive alternative has therefore been sought. Angiographic studies of 64-slice CT have shown accuracy in the diagnosis of coronary artery stenosis. Pache et al. therefore assessed the ...

Hausleiter et al. used contrast-enhanced 64-slice CT in 161 consecutive patients with suspected CAD and identified noncalcified coronary plaques in 48 patients, 38 of whom also had calcified plaques.

For many current CT angiographic applications, 16 slice MDCT scanners are the minimum level of technology needed and 64 slice scanners are needed for ... the patient’s medical history. Then the CT ...

A generation of CT scanners, termed "64-slice" scanners after the number of detector rows or data channels used in the craniocaudal direction, was introduced beginning in 2004. The introduction of ...
