A report of the American College of Cardiology Foundation Appropriate Use Criteria Task Force, the Society of Cardiovascular Computed Tomography, the American College of Radiology, the American Heart Association, the American Society of Echocardiography, the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology, the North American Society for Cardiovascular Imaging, the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions, and the Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance. J. Am. Coll.

We previously reported the improvement and problems in appropriate use of cardiac CT: 2003, 2007 and 2011 actual use of CT-based on ACCF/SCCT/ACR/AHA/ASE/ASNC/NASCI/SCAI/SCMR 2010 appropriate use criteria for cardiac CT [ [2] Ozawa K. Funabashi N. Takaoka H. Kobayashi Y. Improvement and problems in appropriate use of cardiac CT: 2003, 2007 and 2011 Use of CT-based on ACCF/SCCT/ACR/AHA/ASE/ASNC/NASCI/SCAI/SCMR 2010 appropriate use criteria for cardiac CT. Int. J.

Furthermore we also reported the impairment factors for evaluating the patency of drug-eluting stents and bare metal stents in coronary arteries by 64-slice CT versus invasive coronary angiography [ [3] Nakamura K. Funabashi N. Uehara M. Suzuki K. Terao M. Okubo K. Mita Y. Maeda F. Komuro I. Impairment factors for evaluating the patency of drug-eluting stents and bare metal stents in coronary arteries by 64-slice computed tomography versus invasive coronary angiography. Int. J. Cardiol. 2008; 130: 349-356 Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (27) Google Scholar ] and we concluded that when body mass index is high, it remains difficult to accurately evaluate stent patency irrespective of stent type and size.
