Cardiovascular Center Aalst, Onze-Lieve-Vrouwziekenhuis (OLV) Clinic, Aalst, Belgium (M. Belmonte, P.P., M.M.V., M. Beles, H.O., R.S., G.E., M.S., R.D., W.H., J.V.K., J.B., M.V.).

Background: Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is emerging as a valuable tool for noninvasive surveillance of cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) in patients with heart transplant (HTx). We assessed the diagnostic performance of a comprehensive CCTA-based approach compared with the invasive reference, which includes invasive coronary angiography, intravascular ultrasound, and fractional flow reserve, for detecting CAV.

Methods: This was a multicenter prospective study including 37 patients with HTx who underwent CCTA, invasive coronary angiography, intravascular ultrasound, and fractional flow reserve.
