The objective of this multicenter study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of dynamic cardiac CT perfusion (CTP) imaging for non-invasive functional assessment of coronary artery disease (CAD). The proposed CTP technique allows concomitant assessment of two imaging-derived cardiac biomarkers including fractional flow reserve (FFR) and myocardial perfusion from a single dynamic imaging sequence, which facilities simultaneous evaluation of the hemodynamics in epicardial coronary arteries and coronary microcirculation in patients with CAD. The CTP results will be compared with invasive coronary angiography / FFR assessment and non-invasive cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) / radionuclide perfusion assessment.

| Dynamic cardiac CT perfusion imaging | Diagnostic Test | Multiple images of the heart are acquired with a clinical CT scanner after an intravenous bolus injection of contrast solution. The images are then analyzed to provide fractional flow reserve and myocardial perfusion values. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Accuracy of myocardial perfusion obtained from dynamic cardiac CT perfusion imaging for detecting functionally significant coronary artery stenosis | Comparison with invasive coronary angiography and FFR assessment | Within 4 weeks prior to invasive cardiac catheterization |
| Accuracy of FFR obtained from dynamic cardiac CT perfusion imaging for detecting functionally significant coronary artery stenosis | Comparison with invasive coronary angiography and FFR assessment | Within 4 weeks prior to invasive cardiac catheterization |
| Accuracy of combined myocardial perfusion and FFR measurement obtained from dynamic cardiac CT perfusion imaging for detecting functionally significant coronary artery stenosis | Comparison with invasive coronary angiography and FFR assessment | Within 4 weeks prior to invasive cardiac catheterization |
