多排螺旋计算机体层扫描对冠状动脉钙化检测的国外研究进展

摘要

The presence of calcified deposits in coronary arteries has been established as a marker of coronary atherosclerosis. In the past ten years, studies have reported on the methods of detecting coronary artery calcium, the variability of coronary artery calcium measurements, the clinical value of coronary artery calcium scoring, and dynamic changes in coronary artery calcium. The recent development of multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) in detecting coronary calcium has become a hot topic. This article reviews the use of MDCT in detecting coronary calcium abroad.%冠状动脉钙化是冠状动脉粥样硬化病变存在的标志,反映了粥样硬化斑块,特别是钙化斑块的存在和分布.在过去10余年里.大量电子束计算机体层扫描研究围绕冠状动脉钙化的临床价值、检测方法和可重复性以及冠状动脉钙化演变等热点问题展开.随着多排螺旋计算机体层扫描的不断发展和普及,它在冠状动脉钙化检测方面的价值也在成为热点,现就对多排螺旋计算机体层扫描在这些方面应用的国外研究现状做一综述.
