Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of Dual-Energy Computed Tomography of the Heart With Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography for Assessment of Coronary Artery Stenosis and of the Myocardial Blood Supply
Balazs Ruzsics,Florian Schwarz,U. Joseph Schoepf,Yeong Shyan Lee,Yeong Shyan Lee,Gorka Bastarrika,Gorka Bastarrika,Salvatore A. Chiaramida,Philip Costello,Peter L. Zwerner +9 more
TL;DR: DECT, as a single examination, might be promising for the integrative analysis of the coronary artery morphology and the myocardial blood supply and is in good agreement with ICA and SPECT.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dual-energy CT of the heart--principles and protocols.
Florian Schwarz,Balazs Ruzsics,U. Joseph Schoepf,Gorka Bastarrika,Salvatore A. Chiaramida,Joseph A. Abro,Sebastian Vogt,Bernhard Schmidt,Philip Costello,Peter L. Zwerner +9 more
TL;DR: There is early evidence that contrast medium enhanced dual-energy cCTA (DECT) has potential for the comprehensive analysis of coronary artery morphology as well as changes in myocardial perfusion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantification of Coronary Artery Calcium on the Basis of Dual-Energy Coronary CT Angiography
Florian Schwarz,John W. Nance,Balazs Ruzsics,Gorka Bastarrika,Gorka Bastarrika,Alexander Sterzik,U. Joseph Schoepf +6 more
TL;DR: Coronary artery calcium identification and quantification based on dual-energy coronary CT angiographic studies may obviate the need for dedicated CT calcium scoring studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship between coronary artery disease and epicardial adipose tissue quantification at cardiac CT: comparison between automatic volumetric measurement and manual bidimensional estimation.
Gorka Bastarrika,Gorka Bastarrika,Jordi Broncano,U. Joseph Schoepf,Florian Schwarz,Yeong Shyan Lee,Yeong Shyan Lee,Joseph A. Abro,Philip Costello,Peter L. Zwerner +9 more
TL;DR: For the quantification of EAT on cardiac CT, automated volumetry is more reproducible and correlates better with the extent of CAD than manual bidimensional measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reproducibility of left and right ventricular mass measurements with cardiac CT.
Florian Schwarz,Florian Schwarz,Richard A.P. Takx,Richard A.P. Takx,U. Joseph Schoepf,Yeong Shyan Lee,Yeong Shyan Lee,Balazs Ruzsics,Eva Maria Gassner,Salvatore A. Chiaramida,Thomas Henzler,Thomas Henzler +11 more
TL;DR: Quantification of LV mass at cardiac CT with the threshold-based, region-growing semiautomatic segmentation analysis software evaluated here is highly observer independent and reproducible.
