At Subang Jaya Medical Centre's Heart, Vascular, and Thoracic Department, we recognise the importance of accurate imaging techniques to evaluate your heart's blood vessels. Cardiac Computed Tomography Angiogram (CT Angiogram) is a non-invasive diagnostic test that provides detailed images of your heart's blood vessels, helping our medical professionals assess their structure and detect abnormalities.
During a Cardiac CT Angiogram, a specialised CT scanner takes multiple X-ray images of your heart from different angles. These images are then reconstructed using computer algorithms to create a 3D representation of your heart's blood vessels. This allows our cardiologists to evaluate the presence of plaque build-up, blockages, or narrowing in your coronary arteries.
1. Assessing Coronary Artery Disease: Cardiac CT Angiogram helps evaluate the presence and severity of coronary artery disease, the most common form of heart disease. It allows our cardiologists to detect blockages or narrowing in the coronary arteries, guiding treatment decisions and intervention strategies.
2. Visualizing Cardiac Anatomy: This imaging technique provides detailed visualisation of your heart's anatomy, including the chambers, valves, and major blood vessels. It helps assess the structure and function of your heart, aiding in diagnosing various cardiac conditions such as congenital heart defects or valvular abnormalities.
3. Guiding Treatment Plans: By providing accurate images of your heart's blood vessels, a Cardiac CT Angiogram helps guide treatment plans, including interventions such as angioplasty, stenting, or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). It assists our cardiologists in determining the most appropriate course of action for your specific condition.
At SJMC, we are committed to utilising advanced imaging techniques to provide accurate diagnoses and personalised care. Cardiac CT Angiogram is one of the many screening and diagnostic services we offer to evaluate your heart's blood vessels and provide you with the highest standard of cardiovascular care.
