    Author: Veselova TN, Sinitsina SV, Shiriaev AA, Ternovoĭ SK.
    Journal: Ter Arkh; 2004; 76(11):9-13. PubMed ID: 15658529.
    Abstract:
    AIM: To assess diagnostic value of electron-beam computed tomography and multislice computed tomography (EBT and MSCT) for diagnosis of congenital anomalies of coronary arteries (CA). MATERIAL AND METHODS: Non-invasive coronary angiography with EBT and MSCT has been performed in 1162 patients. RESULTS: Different anomalies of coronary arteries have been found in 10 (0.9%) patients. Results of EBT and MSCT agreed with those of coronary angiography performed in 8 cases with CA anomalies. Though 720 of 1162 patients had coronary stenoses, no significant atherosclerotic lesions were found in anomalous CA. CONCLUSION: EBT and MSCT enable non-invasive screening and diagnosis of coronary arteries anomalies.
