Key result
CT aortic angiography combined with coronary CTA provides accurate and reliable information for the early detection, diagnosis, and treatment of acute aortic syndrome complicated with coronary artery disease.
Why the study?
Patients with acute aortic syndrome are often complicated with coronary artery disease and require rapid diagnosis to avoid adverse events, leading to increasing clinical application of aortic CTA combined with coronary CTA.
Combining aortic and coronary CT angiography provides critical diagnostic information for evaluating acute aortic syndrome and concurrent coronary artery disease, which is essential for guiding immediate medical or surgical treatment.
May support combined CTA for AAS with CAD; leaves open prospective validation before practice change.
Acute aortic syndrome (AAS) is a group of cardiovascular diseases that seriously threaten human life and health. AAS patients are often complicated with coronary artery disease and other related diseases, which require rapid and clear clinical diagnosis to avoid serious adverse events. In recent years, with the progress of science and technology, a variety of computer tomography (CT) angiography techniques have been applied in the clinic, and the diagnosis rate of AAS with coronary heart disease (CAD) has greatly increased. At the same time, the development of surgical technology and endovascular repair technology has significantly reduced the mortality and complication rate of AAS surgery. In the clinical diagnosis of AAS and related diseases, CT aortic angiography (CTA) combined with coronary CTA is increasingly applied to identify related diseases. Here, the current research progress on the technique of aortic CTA combined with coronary CTA is reviewed.
