Diagnostic Performance and Clinical Impact of Photon-Counting Detector Computed Tomography in Coronary Artery Disease

Jan 27, 2025

In this podcast, Dr. Valentin Fuster discusses a groundbreaking study comparing photon counting detector (PCD) CT technology with traditional EIDCT for diagnosing coronary artery disease. The research suggests that PCDCT offers superior specificity and diagnostic accuracy, potentially replacing older methods, and could revolutionize cardiac imaging by reducing the need for invasive procedures and improving patient outcomes.
