Abstract

Objective: To assess the feasibility and accuracy of CT coronary angiography (CTCA) combined with CT first-pass myocardial perfusion imaging (CT first-pass MPI) at rest for diagnosis of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD).<br />Methods: Fifty-five patients, suspected or diagnosed as CAD, were performed with CTCA and CAG within 2 weeks. CT first-pass MPI detected myocardial ischemia through analyzing the raw date of CTCA.<br />Results: Comparison with the results of CAG, the sensibility, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV) and accuracy of CT first-pass MPI at rest for detecting obstructive CAD were 84.6%, 68.8%, 86.8%, 64.7% and 80.0%, respectively; and 92.3%, 93.8%, 97.3%, 83.3%, 92.7% for CTCA combined with CT first-pass MPI, respectively.<br />Conclusion: CTCA combined with CT first-pass MPI at rest could detect obstructive CAD feasible and accurately.
