Coronary artery anomalies and clinically important anatomy in patients with congenital heart disease: multislice CT findings

Hyun Woo Goo et al. Pediatr Radiol. 2009 Mar.

Abstract

In patients with congenital heart disease, coronary artery anomalies are common and have different clinical importance from individuals with structurally normal hearts. Visibility of the coronary arteries by CT has markedly improved due to high temporal resolution and ECG-synchronized data acquisition. In this article we describe current multislice CT techniques for coronary artery imaging and illustrate coronary artery anomalies and clinically important coronary artery anatomy from the point of view of congenital heart disease.
