Prognostic Value and Therapeutic Perspectives of Coronary CT Angiography: A Literature Review

Figure 1

A fifty-two-year-old male patient with familial history of coronary artery disease and inconclusive ECG stress test underwent cardiac computed tomography angiography. Multiplanar reconstruction shows in panels (a), (b), and (c) the presence of severe coronary artery disease at the level of distal left anterior descending artery (arrowhead). Invasive coronary angiography confirmed the diagnosis (panel (c), arrows) and the patient underwent successfully coronary revascularization.
