title: [64 MDCT imaging of the heart].
abstract: In the investigation of ischemic heart disease, cardiac CT imaging is the most effective non-invasive technique for exploration of the coronary arteries now. Thanks to its volume acquisition, cardiac CT is acknowledged to be the best technique for reproducible out-patient exploration not only of the coronary arteries but of all cardiac structures. Over the last 4 years, after a period of technical development and clinical validation, cardiac CT imaging has become a routine examination that is progressively finding a place alongside other types of cardiac exploration. The latest generation of faster, high-resolution devices has pushed back the limits of this technique. Not only coronography but also other modes of imaging in an increasing number of indications are progessively reduced by this complementary examination. We presented our first experiences which we had got through examinatinon of 70 patients.
