This retrospective study was conducted to determine a new cut for calcium score without adversely affecting the diagnostic accuracy of CTCA. Methods CTCA was performed on a third generation dual-source CT scanner (Siemens Force 512 slice). Agatston method was used for the quantification of the coronary artery calcium. The degree of luminal narrowing was classified using the CAD-RAD scoring system. The coronary plaques were classified into calcified, non-calcified and mixed subtypes. We reviewed the results of any subsequent non-invasive (stress echocardiography, cardiac magnetic resonance perfusion imaging) and invasive (coronary angiography) tests to assess the correlation with CTCA. Results 296 patients were included in the analysis. 22% (64/296) did not go on to further investigations. 78% (232/296) underwent non-invasive or invasive tests. The correlation of CTCA with further investigations did not depend on total calcium score. 76% of CTCAs correlated with further investigations, 5% did not correlate and 19% had inconclusive results. (Multiple artefacts preventing complete CTCA interpretation). Conclusion The correlation or non-correlation of the CTCA results with further investigations was not affected by the total calcium score. Therefore we deem it is reasonable to proceed with a CTCA even when the calcium score exceeds 1000.","PeriodicalId":383700,"journal":{"name":"Scientific poster abstracts","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130015819","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A slot was created in each Cardiac CT list. Prior to this, patients would remain inpatients for up to 48 hours waiting for a scan or would have an outpatient scan after 10–20 weeks in 50% of cases. Methods Data was collected retrospectively from the radiology information system for the time period between September 2017 and August 2019 and analysed with regards to the time from request received to scan performed, degree of stenosis and management. Results Data for 116 patients was collected of which 9 were excluded due to patient cancellation or equipment failure. Of the remaining 107, the average time from request received to scan performed was 9.9 days. CT coronary angiogram (CTCA) was reported as normal in 50 cases and mild stenosis in 30 cases. There were 3 patent stents and grafts. Three patients had zero calcium but no CTCA performed. Two patients had high calcium score and no CTCA. One of these went onto have CABG. Stenosis was reported ranging from moderate to severe in 19 patients; 6 of these had stent insertions. Conclusion The acute Cardiac CT pathway demonstrated a substantial reduction in average waiting times to 9.9 days and allows earlier management of obstructive CAD in those patients presenting with Troponin negative chest pain.","PeriodicalId":383700,"journal":{"name":"Scientific poster abstracts","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126421133","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

FFRCT was introduced in our regular practice at ‘UHL’ in April 2018. This audit sought to assess the utility of FFRCT in evaluating the functional significance of all potentially flow limiting stenosis as seen on conventional CT. Methods We reviewed all cases which were sent for FFRCT analyses from April 2018 to December 2019. Patients with FFRCT values of >0.80 and Results A total of 222 cases were sent for FFRCT analysis to Heartflow. FFRCT was 0.80 in 100 patients in at least one coronary vessel. Invasive angiogram was performed in 59 of these patients, of which 50 had CTFFR 0.80. Of these, 35 patients had stents or were referred to surgery. Five of the patients that had revascularisation, had a CT FFR of >0.8. Conclusion We found that FFRCT has a valuable role in assessing the significance of moderate to severe stenosis on CTCA.

Preston","doi":"10.1136/HEARTJNL-2020-BSCI.27","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1136/HEARTJNL-2020-BSCI.27","url":null,"abstract":"Introduction In the UK, national guidance on the assessment of cardiac sounding chest pain (NICE CG95 2016), advises that CT coronary angiography (CTCA) is the first line imaging modality. If this reveals coronary artery disease of uncertain functional significance or is non-diagnostic, non-invasive functional testing is advised as second line. Invasive coronary angiography is only advocated as third-line when functional imaging is inconclusive or if intervention is planned and should not be performed merely to ‘check’ CTCA. We present an audit to assess the adherence to this national guidance in our centre. Methods Retrospective analysis of 281 consecutive CTCA performed between July 2017 to June 2018 and October 2018 to January 2019. Data collected include demographics, CAD-RADS score, and the presence/absence of any subsequent functional imaging, invasive angiography, PCI, or CABG up until the data collection time-point (September 2019). Results 276 scans were suitable for analysis and, out of these, 231 (84%) were discharged without further investigation. A total of 24 patients underwent subsequent functional imaging and 25 underwent invasive coronary angiography; in 16 of these patients (64%) no revascularisation was performed. Conclusion Overall adherence to the guidelines at our institution is good with the majority of patients (84%) discharged without further investigation. Importantly, in 64% of patients undergoing invasive angiography no intervention was performed, suggesting that some of these may be unnecessary.","PeriodicalId":383700,"journal":{"name":"Scientific poster abstracts","volume":"83 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129080572","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
