[Improvement of specificity in evaluation of aortocoronary bypass grafts by serial (dynamic) computed tomography (author's transl)]. 1982

V Mühlberger, and D zur Nedden, and F Unger, and H Scharfetter

Serial (dynamic) Computed Tomography (CT) with a non-periodic reconstruction of 21 images per minute improves specificity in evaluation of aortocoronary bypass grafts. In 35 bypass grafts, selective coronary arteriography was performed the day after CT: Sensitivity of CT-technique was 92%, specificity 89%. Without additional serial Ct, sensitivity was 85%, specificity 67%. Quantitative CT-measurements of flow equivalents showed no significant differences within two groups with angiographically displayed different "run off".

D011183 Postoperative Complications Pathologic processes that affect patients after a surgical procedure. They may or may not be related to the disease for which the surgery was done, and they may or may not be direct results of the surgery. Complication, Postoperative,Complications, Postoperative,Postoperative Complication
D003326 Coronary Circulation The circulation of blood through the CORONARY VESSELS of the HEART. Circulation, Coronary
D003327 Coronary Disease An imbalance between myocardial functional requirements and the capacity of the CORONARY VESSELS to supply sufficient blood flow. It is a form of MYOCARDIAL ISCHEMIA (insufficient blood supply to the heart muscle) caused by a decreased capacity of the coronary vessels.

D004562 Electrocardiography Recording of the moment-to-moment electromotive forces of the HEART as projected onto various sites on the body's surface, delineated as a scalar function of time. The recording is monitored by a tracing on slow moving chart paper or by observing it on a cardioscope, which is a CATHODE RAY TUBE DISPLAY. 12-Lead ECG,12-Lead EKG,12-Lead Electrocardiography,Cardiography,ECG,EKG,Electrocardiogram,Electrocardiograph,12 Lead ECG,12 Lead EKG,12 Lead Electrocardiography,12-Lead ECGs,12-Lead EKGs,12-Lead Electrocardiographies,Cardiographies,ECG, 12-Lead,EKG, 12-Lead,Electrocardiograms,Electrocardiographies, 12-Lead,Electrocardiographs,Electrocardiography, 12-Lead
