ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

We sought to compare the degree of maximal stenosis and the rate of invasive coronary angiography (ICA) recommendations in patients who underwent coronary CT angiography (CCTA) with photon-counting detector CT (PCD-CT) versus those who underwent CCTA with whole heart coverage energy-integrating detector CT (EID-CT).

METHODS:

In our retrospective single-center study, we included consecutive patients with suspected CAD who underwent CCTA performed with either PCD-CT or a 280-slice EID-CT. The degree of coronary stenosis was classified as no CAD, minimal (1-24 â€‹%), mild (25-49 â€‹%), moderate (50-69 â€‹%), severe stenosis (70-99 â€‹%), or occlusion.

RESULTS:

A total of 812 consecutive patients were included in the analysis, 401 patients scanned with EID-CT and 411 patients with PCD-CT (mean age 58.4 â€‹± â€‹12.4 years, 45.4 â€‹% female). Despite the higher total coronary artery calcium score (CACS) in the PCD-CT group (10 [interquartile range (IQR) â€‹= â€‹0-152.8] vs 1 [IQR â€‹= â€‹0-94], p â€‹< â€‹0.001), obstructive CAD was more frequently reported in the EID-CT vs PCD-CT group (no CAD 28.7 â€‹% vs 26.0 â€‹%, minimal 23.2 â€‹% vs 30.9 â€‹%, mild 19.7 â€‹% vs 23.4 â€‹%, moderate 14.5 â€‹% vs 9.7 â€‹%, severe 11.5 â€‹% vs 8.5 â€‹% and occlusion 2.5 â€‹% vs 1.5 â€‹%, respectively, p â€‹= â€‹0.025). EID-CT was independently associated with downstream ICA (OR â€‹= â€‹2.76 [95%CI â€‹= â€‹1.58-4.97] p â€‹< â€‹0.001) in the overall patient population, in patients with CACS<400 (OR â€‹= â€‹2.18 [95%CI â€‹= â€‹1.13-4.39] p â€‹= â€‹0.024) and in patients with CACS≥400 (OR â€‹= â€‹3.83 [95%CI â€‹= â€‹1.42-11.05] p â€‹= â€‹0.010).

CONCLUSION:

In patients who underwent CCTA with PCD-CT the number of subsequent ICAs was lower as compared to patients who were scanned with EID-CT. This difference was greater in patients with extensive coronary calcification.
