Brief summary

The purpose of this prospective observational study is to evaluate the diagnostic and prognostic performance of a one-stop comprehensive coronary artery anatomy and function assessment for CAD.

Detailed description

Coronary CT angiography (CCTA) has become a reliable diagnostic technique to evaluate coronary artery disease (CAD) with high sensitivity and a negative predictive value. However, CCTA provides only anatomic information and tends to overestimate stenosis severity and is limited in its ability to diagnose myocardial ischemia. Undertaking additional CT myocardial perfusion imaging(CT-MPI) and CT-FFR improves specificity and positive predictive value, reducing unnecessary invasive coronary angiography. The purpose of this prospective observational study is to evaluate the diagnostic and prognostic performance of a one-stop comprehensive coronary artery anatomy and function assessment for CAD. SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging (SPECT-MPI)and invasively measured fractional flow reserve (FFR) will serve as the reference standard.
