Frequency of Unevaluable Segments of Coronary Arteries on Computed Tomography (CT) Among Three Electrocardiogram (ECG)-gating Methods (Modified from Reference 28).
In 35 subjects with heart rate (HR) >65 beats per minute, the percentage of unevaluable segments of coronary arteries among a total of 560 segments on CT were significantly higher in virtual prospective ECG gating without padding (13.6±27.9%) than in virtual prospective ECG gating with padding (0.7±3.1%), and retrospective ECG gating (0.7±3.1%) (both P=0.012).
