Reduced Axial Scan Length Coronary Calcium Scoring Reduces Radiation Dose and Provides Adequate Clinical Decision-Making Before Coronary CT Angiography

Extensive coronary artery calcium (CAC) diminishes the accuracy of coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA). Many imagers adjust CCTA acquisition parameters depending on a preCCTA Agatston CAC score to optimize diagnostic accuracy. Typical preCCTA CAC imaging adds considerably to radiation ex...
