Abstract
Results In a patient-based analysis, the sensitivity, specificity, and overall accuracy of detection of significant stenosis on CT against ICA were 95%, 85%, and 91% in Group 1, and 93%, 83%, and 90% in Group 2, respectively. No significant differences were observed between the two groups in the patient- and segment-based analyses. However, among cases with a severe coronary artery calcium score >400 (31 cases in Group 1 and 28 in Group 2), the specificity and overall accuracy were significantly higher (all p<0.01) in Group 2 than in Group 1 according to the segment-based analysis.
