Coronary CT angiography is often used as the first imaging method in patients with stable chest pain. For optimal use, it is important to know which patients we cannot expect to get high-quality images for analysis and to be aware of scan and reconstruction features that could affect image quality. In this session, you will receive tips on how to select and prepare patients, define the examination protocol, analyse the images, and write a report.
