Brief Summary:
Cardiovascular disease and ischemic heart disease is the 1 killer in Canada Currently Cardiac invasive catheterization angiography CICA is the gold standard for the assessment of the arteries in the heart However cardiac catheterization has risks which prohibit its use in all patients These risks include death heart attack stroke and bleeding Cardiac computed tomography angiography CTA is a new non-invasive technology which may enable the evaluation of patients coronary anatomy without exposing patients to the risks of invasive cardiac catheterization
The purpose of this project is to compare CT angiography CTA to Tc-99m single photon emission computed tomography Tc-99m SPECT
We will enroll patients who are waiting for a CICA or who have been referred for a TC-99m SPECT or CTA scans at the University of Ottawa Heart Institute Consenting patients who are waiting for a CICA will have both a CTA and a Tc-99m SPECT scan Consenting patients referred for a CTA or Tc-99m SPECT will have both the CTA and Tc-99m SPECT in a random order but not CICA unless ordered by your physician
