March 2008

Purpose: To retrospectively compare image quality, radiation dose, and blood vessel assessability for coronary artery computed tomographic (CT) angiograms obtained with a prospectively gated transverse (PGT) CT technique and a retrospectively gated helical (RGH) CT technique.

Materials And Methods: This HIPAA-compliant study received a waiver for approval from the institutional review board, including one for informed consent. Coronary CT angiograms obtained with 64-detector row CT were retrospectively evaluated in 203 clinical patients.

- Judith L Lane's research primarily focuses on the comparison of different coronary CT angiography techniques, notably the prospectively gated transverse (PGT) and retrospectively gated helical (RGH) methods, aiming to improve image quality while minimizing radiation exposure.
- In her 2008 study published in *Radiology*, Lane analyzed data from 203 patients to assess the image quality and assessability of blood vessels using both CT techniques, highlighting the advantages of PGT in reducing radiation dose without sacrificing diagnostic effectiveness.
- The findings emphasize the importance of optimizing imaging techniques in clinical settings, contributing to better patient safety and the advancement of cardiovascular imaging methodologies.
