Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Recently, multi-detector CT (MDCT) has emerged as a new modality that offers a non-invasive means to directly visualize coronary anatomy and any CAD. Studies have shown that MDCT has excellent sensitivity and a high negative predictive value in detecting significant CAD.
The purpose of this study is to compare MDCT with nuclear stress testing for detecting CAD in previously undiagnosed patients.
