Presentations By Cedars-Sinai Medical Center At The Annual Meetings Of The American College Of Cardiology 57th Annual Scientific Session

Researchers at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center's S. Mark Taper Foundation Imaging Center made several presentations at the annual meetings of the American College of Cardiology (ACC) 57th Annual Scientific Session held in Chicago, Ill. (March 29 - April 1, 2008).

One key topic was a novel approach devised by Cedars-Sinai researchers to minimize radiation exposure by up to 75 percent in coronary CTA, while preserving the same diagnostic image quality associated with the standard CTA examination. For symptomatic patients, Cedars-Sinai researchers have developed the "Low-dose Coronary CT Angiogram," which exposes the patient to full-dose x-rays for only a fraction of the heart cycle. The approach is accomplished without sacrificing the ability to evaluate cardiac function at the same time that the coronary arteries are being viewed. The result is important information for evaluating the presence of potentially life threatening disease while at the same time dramatically reducing radiation exposure.

Among the sessions presented by Cedars-Sinai Medical Center's S. Mark Taper Foundation Imaging Center physicians and researchers:

"Do Obesity and Body Mass Index Differentially Predict an Abnormal Caotid-Intima Media Thickness Over Coronary Calcium?"

"Integrated Coronary CTA in an Office Based Cardiology Practice Reduces Myocardial Perfusion Imaging and Exercise Treadmill Testing in the Setting of Increased Identification of CAD, Stable Office Economics and More Aggressive Lipid Management."

"A Novel Approach to Optimized Radiation Dose Reduction During Multiphase Coronary CTA With Dual Source CT."

"A New Method for Computer Aided Quantitation of Noncalcified Plaque Volume From Coronary CTA Using Scan Specific Attenuation Thresholds."

"Dilation of the Ascending Aorta is Associated With Clinical Risk and CT Features of Atherosclerosis."

"Does Zero Coronary or Aortic Calcium Score Predict Absence of Carotid Plaque?"

"Is Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging a Useful Test in the Diagnosis of Women with Microvascular Angina?"

"Combined Qualitative Analysis of 64-Slice Coronary CT Angiography And Myocardial Perfusion SPECT."

"Stress Myocardial Perfusion SPECT is Predictive of the Long-Term Therapeutic Benefit of revascularization Versus Medical Therapy."

"Silent Ischemia Revisited: Results of 10-Year Follow-Up in Patients With Symptomatic and Silent Exercise-Induced Ischemia on Myocardial Perfusion SPECT."
