Comparative analysis of photon-counting and energy-integrating detector CT to identify obstructive coronary artery disease
Question Accurate coronary CT angiography guides treatment, but its diagnostic accuracy is limited by various factors. Findings Photon counting detector (PCD)-CT improved diagnostic performance in detecting ≥ 50% or ≥ 70% stenosis, potentially reducing unnecessary ICA referrals by 14.8%. Clinical relevance PCD-CT improves diagnostic accuracy over EID-CT and may reduce unnecessary ICA.
