Kurzbeschreibung/Zielsetzung
Hypertension induces coronary artery disease (CAD) and progression of arterial wall calcification. As coronary calcifications may cause artefacts in 64-slice computed tomography coronary angiography (CTCA), we sought to determine the diagnostic accuracy of CTCA in patients with and without arterial hypertension.
