摘要
Noninvasive imaging of the coronary arteries using multidetector computed tomography is gaining recognition among clinicians. The rapid evolution of this technology is opening new frontiers in the diagnosis of coronary artery disease. This article reviews the current status and future potential for the application of noninvasive coronary multidetector computed tomography angiography in the assessment of coronary artery stenosis, coronary artery anomolies, mural plaque and coronary stent and bypass graft potency.
