摘要
Non-invasive CT coronary artery imaging has previously had little relevance to most UK radiologists due to the limited availability of electron beam CT scanners. Major advances in CT technology have promoted new applications for helical CT, which include cardiac imaging. Widespread installation of 'multislice' helical CT scanners will make CT coronary artery imaging available for the first time in many UK hospitals. The technical advances and early clinical trial data are reviewed and multislice helical CT cardiac imaging in general is discussed.
