Correlation of patient characteristics with peak enhancement time for pediatric cardiac computed tomography in congenital heart disease
The findings conclude that PET during CCT is significantly associated with heart rate and respiratory rate. An increase in these rates corresponds to a notable decrease in PET. Consequently, the study recommends minimizing scan delays in CCT for patients exhibiting higher heart rates.
