Modern Cardiac Imaging: The Role of CCTA in CAD Management

Speaker: Dr. Hasan Aydin – University of Health Sciences, Türkiye
Title: Coronary CT Angiography (CCTA) and the role of structured reporting in contemporary CAD management

🔍 Understanding CCTA

Coronary CT Angiography (CCTA) is transforming the way cardiologists diagnose and evaluate coronary artery disease. This advanced imaging method provides clear visualization of coronary vessels and plaque buildup while avoiding invasive catheter procedures.

📊 Scientific Highlights

🔹 Accurate CAD Detection
CCTA enables early identification of coronary artery narrowing and plaque accumulation.

🔹 Optimized Imaging Technique
Medications such as beta-blockers and nitroglycerin help control heart rate and improve vessel visualization during scanning.

🔹 Comprehensive Assessment
The imaging technique also detects extracardiac conditions like aortic disease or pulmonary embolism.

🔹 Structured Reporting with CAD-RADS 2.0
The standardized CAD-RADS classification system improves communication between radiologists and cardiologists by categorizing disease severity and plaque characteristics.

🔹 Enhanced Risk Evaluation
Modifiers such as HRP (High-Risk Plaque) and I (Ischemia) help identify patients who may require further diagnostic or interventional procedures.

🩺 Why It Matters

CCTA plays a critical role in modern cardiovascular care by offering a fast, non-invasive, and highly informative diagnostic tool. Structured reporting systems further enhance its clinical value by guiding physicians toward the most appropriate treatment strategies.
