CT and MRI in Suspected Ischemic Heart Disease

CT and MRI have made enormous strides over the past decades becoming established imaging techniques in patients with suspected ischemic heart disease. The impact of these imaging techniques cannot be overestimated in the diagnosis and prognostication of patients with ischemic heart disease. As ischemic heart disease is highly prevalent, any contribution to improving the diagnosis and work-up of these patients by noninvasive imaging techniques has direct implications to more cost-effective diagnosis and therapy.
