Clinical Trial: Coronary Evaluation And Guided Lesion Exploration Using Photon-counting CT and Intracoronary Imaging Techniques

U.S., June 26 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07036770) titled 'Coronary Evaluation And Guided Lesion Exploration Using Photon-counting CT and Intracoronary Imaging Techniques' on May 26.

Brief Summary: This study evaluates the diagnostic accuracy and limitations of photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) in characterizing coronary plaque, with comparisons to optical coherence tomography (OCT) and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS). The objective is to assess whether cardiac ultra-high resolution (UHR) PCCT -with its improved spatial resolution and superior soft tissue contrast relative to conventional CT- can serve as a reliable, non-invasive alternative for coronary plaque assessment and suppo...
