摘要
This case report describes the use of retrospectively ECG-gated multislice spiral computed tomography (MSCT) for evaluation of lesion severity in a patient with relevant left main stenosis by visual analysis of the coronary angiogram. For further diagnostic evaluation the patient underwent intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) imaging, which showed a maximal 30% area stenosis, and MSCT, which demonstrated a maximal 48% area stenosis. MSCT was useful in this case to defer cardiac surgery and might be used as a noninvasive alternative to IVUS imaging in case of doubtful lesion severity.
