Everything You Need To Know About CT Coronary Angiography
CT Coronary Angiography, also known as CTCA, is a diagnostic imaging test that visualizes the blood vessels in the heart using computed tomography to obtain cross-sectional images. This scan also uses a contrast agent injected into veins, but particularly magnifies the arteries of the heart. CTCA is mainly used to find plaque accumulation, constriction or obstructions that can cause coronary artery disease (CAD).
At Kaivee Healthcare, we utilize state-of-the-art multi-slice CT scanners to conduct CTCA, providing quicker scan times and exceptional accuracy. This is undertaken with a non-invasive test that, in many cases, bypasses catheter-based coronary angiography altogether.
Reasons for Needing a CT Coronary Angiography
CTCA is commonly advised in cases like:
- Assessment of chest pain possibly due to cardiovascular cause
- Evaluating risk factors in individuals with a family history of cardiac disease
- Basic tests to screen for atherosclerosis or calcium deposits in the arteries.
- Looking into shortness of breath or unexplained tiredness.
- Preoperative planning of cardiac surgery or interventions
- After cardiac interventions such as stents or bypass surgery
Pioneering the way forward, each CTCA exam at Kaivee Healthcare is conducted, read, and signed off by highly trained and experienced specialist radiologists and cardiac consultants, so you can be confident that it meets the highest clinical standards.
