Abstract
Cardiac computed tomography (CT) is an important diagnostic tool in the management of cardiovascular disease. Various factors influence the overall financial viability of a cardiac CT program, including hardware, software, personnel, billing, and practice type. This review offers a comprehensive analysis of these different cardiac CT costs, and how programs across various practice types manage them.
