Added Value of Transluminal Attenuation Gradient to Qualitative CCTA Ischemia Detection as Determined by <sup>13</sup>N-ammonia PET Quantitative Myocardial Perfusion

Added Value of Transluminal Attenuation Gradient to Qualitative CCTA Ischemia Detection as Determined by <sup>13</sup>N-ammonia PET Quantitative Myocardial Perfusion

Transluminal attenuation gradient (TAG) represents the slope of intraluminal contrast that decreases along a coronary vessel during coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA). The aim of this study was to determine the added value of TAG to qualitative CCTA assessment of significant stenosis (&...
