Dual Energy CT for Ischemia Determination Compared to "Gold Standard" Non-Invasive and Invasive Techniques

The purpose of this study is determine the diagnostic performance of dual energy computed tomography perfusion for non-invasive assessment of the hemodynamic significance of coronary stenosis, as compared to a direct measurement of fraction flow reserve during cardiac catheterization as a reference standard. The overall objective of the present study is to determine the diagnostic performance of dual energy computed tomography perfusion for non-invasive assessment of the hemodynamic significance of coronary stenosis, as compared to direct measurement of fraction flow reserve during cardiac catheterization as a reference standard.
