ABSTRACT It was only fitting that when computed tomography (CT) celebrating its 50th birthday since maiden scan in 1971, it also entering into a new generation 2021 with the Food and Drug Administration's approval of first photon‐counting detector (PCD)‐CT. As non‐invasive cardiac imaging is evolving an ever more important medical field, introduction this technology promises slew improvements over energy‐integrating (EID)‐CTs, most importantly improved spatial resolution form ultrahigh‐resolution (UHR) imaging, reduced radiation exposure, routinely acquired spectral information. Spatial has historically been key hurdle for CT, especially coronary where structures realm 2 mm need to be assessed. Initial reports on use PCD‐CT so far have promising, but many questions ranging from standardized protocols evidence‐based recommendations remain. The aim review discuss currently available literature regarding UHR explore if led changes guidelines or patient workflows.

The perivascular fat attenuation index (FAI) has been recognized as a cardiac computed tomography-based (CCT)-based biomarker of coronary inflammation. We report the case 47-year-old woman with acute spontaneous artery dissection (SCAD) involving proximal left (LCA), who underwent FAI three times. initial CCT scan revealed higher values in dissected LCA. second scan, performed 8 days later, showed persistence value only circumflex artery, which progression stenotic severity and myocardial infarction formation were found. may indicate disease deterioration patients SCAD.

Aim Recent research highlights the role of pericoronary adipose tissue (PCAT) in coronary artery disease (CAD) development. PCAT has been recognized as a metabolically active involved local inflammation and oxidative stress, potentially impacting CAD initiation progression. Radiomics texture analysis shows promising results to better understand link between quality risk. Photon-counting CT (PCCT) offers improved feature stability holds potential for advancing radiomics research. Methods In this retrospective, single-center, ethic committee-approved study, left descending (LAD) right (RCA) was manually segmented radiomic features were extracted using pyradiomics. The study population consisted one group patients with plaques exclusively located another without CAD. Mean standard deviation calculated R Statistics. Random forest selection performed identify differentiating four sets CAD-LAD, CAD-RCA, non-CAD-LAD non-CAD-RCA. Results 36 enrolled (16 female, mean age 56 years). “original_glszm_GrayLevelNonUniformity” measuring gray-level variability identified most potent differentiator CAD-LAD non-CAD-LAD, well CAD-RCA non-CAD-RCA greatest capability LAD comparison. showed little power virtually none values consistently lower LAD-PCAT exhibited patient-specific reductions (155.16 163.21 189.13 215.40 non-CAD-RCA). Conclusion revealed differences more homogeneous pattern CAD-affected patients. These changes related also seemed occur unaffected RCA-PCAT, although slightly lesser extent.
