Cardiac Imaging

The cardiac imaging channel includes the modalities of computed tomography (CT), cardiac ultrasound (echocardiography), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), nuclear imaging (PET and SPECT), and angiography.

Comparison of image quality between EID CT with standard contrast media protocol and PCD CT with low-volume contrast media protocol using a matched radiation dose. Transverse and three-dimensional cinematic rendered images from thoracoabdominal CTA in a 71-year-old woman in group 2 are shown. (A–C) Images from third-generation EID CT with automated tube voltage selection of 90 kVp. (D–F) Images from PCD CT with reduced contrast media volume of 52.5 mL and VMI at 50 keV. Time interval between scans was 6 mon
