Medical Imaging

Physicians utilize medical imaging to see inside the body to diagnose and treat patients. This includes computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), X-ray, ultrasound, fluoroscopy, angiography, and the nuclear imaging modalities of PET and SPECT.

Physicians chime in: Coronary plaque staging offers more precise cardiac patient management

Sponsored by Heartflow

As precision cardiology continues to evolve, the integration of advanced coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and AI-driven analysis is fundamentally changing how we assess and manage coronary artery disease (CAD). Here is a closer look at how Heartflow Plaque Staging is leveraging Total Plaque Volume (TPV) to stratify patient risk.

Society of cardiovascular computed tomography (SCCT) President Kavitha Chinnaiyan, MD, FACC, MSCCT, a cardiologist and professor of medicine at Oakland University William Beaumont School of Medicine in Royal Oak, with is part of Corewell Health, explains some of the key trends in coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and how this is being translated into educational programming at the SCCT 2026 annual scientific meeting (ASM). #SCCT2026

SCCT President: Key trends in cardiac CT

As CCTA sees rapid adoption across cardiology, SCCT is working to address the education required to sustain the expansion.
