Key result
Multidetector-row computed tomography provides an accurate, noninvasive alternative to invasive catheterization and angiography for diagnosing pediatric cardiovascular disorders.
Why the study?
Can multidetector-row computed tomography (MDCT) serve as an accurate and noninvasive alternative to invasive catheterization for diagnosing pediatric cardiovascular disorders?
Can multidetector-row computed tomography (MDCT) serve as an accurate and noninvasive alternative to invasive catheterization for diagnosing pediatric cardiovascular disorders?
MDCT is a widely available and noninvasive imaging modality that can serve as an alternative to invasive catheterization in pediatric heart diseases.
MDCT may offer a noninvasive alternative to catheterization in pediatric cardiovascular imaging; leaves open need for prospective validation before routine adoption.
Multidetector-row computed tomography (MDCT) scanners are a widely available, accurate, and noninvasive technique for the diagnosis of pediatric cardiovascular disorders. A lots of articles published regarding the usefulness of MDCT mostly describe that it can be an alternative to the invasive catheterization and angiography.
