Summary

Watch this session to master reading and interpreting standard coronary CT angiography images, to learn how to determine lesion location, quantify stenosis, and to characterize plaques from CT imaging, while gaining the skills to differentiate between image artifacts and true coronary stenosis or plaques.

Learning Objectives

  • To be able to read and interpret the major types of images provided by a standard coronary CT angiography
  • To learn how to derive lesion location, stenosis quantification and plaque characterisation from CT imaging
  • To become familiar in distinguishing between an image artefact and a true coronary stenosis/plaque
