Abstract: To evaluate the clinical values of 64slice computed tomography angiography for coronary heart diseases based on conventional coronary artery angiography serving as the gold standard. MethodsThe results of 64slice CTA were compared with the results of CAG implemented in a recent twoweek period, and the different degrees of the coronary stenosis and pathological changes of different branches of coronary artery shown by 64slice CTA were assessed. ResultsIn 70 patients, 259 coronary arteries were evaluated with 107 lesions found by 64slice CTA. Among the lesions, 101 were diagnosed with CAG; 6 lesions were falsely positive and 8 other lesions were confirmed by CAG, which were not picked up by 64slice CTA. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive values and negative predictive values were 92.7%,96.5%,94.4% and 95.4% respectively for detection of the diseases. Conclusion64slice CTA has good sensitivity and specificity in detecting CAD,and it can also give a fairly accurate assessment for stenosis severity in most patients compared with CAG. Therefore,it is a useful noninvasive method for detecting coronary artery diseases.
