Nichtinvasive kardiale Bildgebung in der Diagnostik der KHK

Der angemessene Einsatz verschiedener Bildgebungsmodalitäten und deren adäquate Durchführung sowie die professionelle Befundung sind für eine qualitativ hochwertige medizinische Versorgung von KHK-Patienten entscheidend. Die Anzahl der wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnisse bzgl. der klinischen Relevanz verschiedener bildgebender Verfahren bei der Abklärung unterschiedlichen Krankheitskonstellationen wächst und wird in diesem Beitrag diskutiert.

Abstract

Cardiovascular imaging has experienced and is still experiencing tremendous advancements as far as hardware as well as software technology is concerned. In every day clinical routine, crucial decisions are daily being taken based on imaging findings. These decisions include changes to treatment strategies, performing further testing, recommending or adhering to preventive measures, and ultimately affect patient outcomes. Appropriate use of different imaging modalities which includes choosing the right modality, adequate performance of the imaging test as well as professional reporting is crucial for providing high quality medical care. Furthermore, a growing body of scientific evidence is currently available that show the clinical relevance of different imaging methods in the clarification of different disease constellations. This article describes various imaging modalities that are used in the work-up of CAD in everyday cardiac routine.
