Abstract
Cardiac computed tomography angiography (CCTA) has acquired a pivotal role in modern cardiology. It represents the gold standard for noninvasive coronary imaging. Moreover, CCTA permits a comprehensive evaluation of atheromatic burden and plaque composition. This study aims to review the impact of CCTA across the different presentations of ischemic heart disease, from primary prevention to the evaluation of patients requiring revascularization.
