摘要
Recently, cardiologists have started serious debates over expensive medical technologies, questioning the conclusions that high-resolution cardiac CT images are almost as effective as conventional angiograms. This debate reveals a deep gap among cardiologists over the use of multi-slice CT angiography. A number of physicians have immediately embraced CT technology and installed expensive CT scanners in their hospitals in order to detect early signs of coronary artery disease.
