Abstract

The role of coronary CT angiography for the diagnosis and risk stratification of coronary artery disease is well established. However, its potential beyond the diagnostic phase remains to be determined. The current review focuses on the insights that coronary CT angiography can provide when planning and performing percutaneous coronary interventions. We describe a novel approach incorporating anatomical and functional pre-procedural planning enhanced by artificial intelligence, computational physiology and online 3D CT guidance for percutaneous coronary interventions. This strategy allows the individualisation of patient selection, optimisation of the revascularisation strategy and effective use of resources.
