“…Moreover, the diagnostic results achieved in our patient population with uninfluenced heart rates are in the same range as previously published results using halfscan reconstruction in patients who received beta-blockers to reduce the heart rate. 17,18,32 The advantage of multisegment reconstruction is achieved by reducing the acquisition window per heartbeat to approximately 160 milliseconds and is particularly pronounced for the RCA and LCX. Therefore, 16-slice CT in combination with multisegment reconstruction does not require administration of betablockers to reduce heart rate.…”
