Technical Aspects of Cardiac CT • Introduction • Multi-slice CT (MSCT) • Scanning the heart with MSCT • Improving – Temporal resolution – Volume coverage – Spatial resolution Harefield Cardiac Course
• Heart rate The heart – Average 60 bpm (1 beat per sec) (40 bpm – 120 bpm) – Vessels move at different speeds • Length ~ 120 mm • Very fine vessels < 1mm • Plaque – calcium, fatty, soft, fibrous Conventional angiography Harefield Cardiac Course
